Summary: builddir != srcdir support

Initial Comment:
Hi,

sleuthkit 3.2.0 requires to run ./configure in source directory. If /path/sleuthkit-VERSION/configure is run from a separate build directory the make command fails due to missing files. Packaging support tools often use a separate build directory by default.

The attached patch fixes this.

The include path are all set relative to current $(builddir) and the corresponding $(srcdir):
AM_CPPFLAGS=-I../.. -I$(srcdir)/../..

An alternative would be to use:
AM_CPPFLAGS=-I$(top_builddir) -I$(top_srcdir)

The patch also adds tsk3/tsk_incs.h to the "clean" target. Otherwise "make distcleancheck" and "make distcheck" fail.

Thanks,
Christian
