Cheyenne Wills 16bae98ec5 INSTALL: document the minimum Linux kernel level 
The change associated with gerrit #14300 removed support for older
Linux kernels (2.6.10 and earlier).

The commit 'Import of code from autoconf-archive' (d8205bbb4) introduced
a check for Autoconf 2.64.  Autoconf 2.64 was released in 2009.

The commit 'regen.sh: Use libtoolize -i, and .gitignore generated
build-tools' (a7cc505d3) introduced a dependency on libtool's  '-i'
option.  Libtool supported the '-i' option with libtool 1.9b in 2004.

Update the INSTALL instructions to document a minimum Linux kernel
level and the minimum levels for autoconf and libtool.

Notes: RHEL4 (EOL in 2017) had a 2.6.9 kernel and RHEL5 has a 2.6.18
kernel. RHEL5 has libtool 1.5.22 and autoconf 2.59, RHEL6 has libtool
2.2.6 and autoconf 2.63, and RHEL7 has libtool 2.4.2 and autoconf 2.69.

AFS is a distributed file system that enables users to share and
access all of the files stored in a network of computers as easily as
they access the files stored on their local machines. The file system is
called distributed for this exact reason: files can reside on many
different machines, but are available to users on every machine.
