fix build failures with slibtool

The following description comes from one of our users whose email address never
received a confirmation mail from the bugzilla system, so I'm filing this bug
on his behalf. The attached patch should fix the problem in git master - please
ensure attribution goes to the patch author (that info is in the patch itself)
rather than to me. Quoted text from user follows:


With the recent addition of slibtool to SBo I found that claws-mail did
not compile with it. After some investigation with the help of the
slibtool upstream it was discovered there are two bugs in the claws-mail
configure.ac. The more permissive libtool in Slackware swallows these
errors while slibtool will result in a build error.

In short the issues are:

1. The configure script contains ARCHIVE_LIBS=ARCHIVE_CFLAGS while
ARCHIVE_CFLAGS is not a variable nor does it exist.

2. There is a potentially bad sed that will try to remove -lc, but
instead it finds -lcrypt and then gives 'rypt' to gcc which is not a
correct build flag.
