Some architectures require special measures to access large files (LFS).
Add `AC_SYS_LARGEFILE' to `configure.ac' to handle this.

It seems that ABI is not changed with this.

Should we also add AC_FUNC_FSEEKO?

I can't see any use of fseek or ftell in the code, but if we are
enabling AC_SYS_LARGEFILE by default we also should check for
AC_FUNC_FSEEKO in order to allow the use of fseeko/ftello whenever
needed.

I thought about AC_FUNC_FSEEKO, but we don't use fseeko/ftello, so it
didn't look useful.

Thanks,

That's fine by me :)

Just was wondering if we should consider now that for possible use in
future. But indeed, that'll be useful only if we would use
fseeko/ftello.

Thanks.
