Update CONFIG to use CONFIG_SITE #8

Following Mark Rivers' suggestion

I would like to suggest that this application and all other synApps applications be updated from using configure/CONFIG_APP to using configure/CONFIG_SITE. CONFIG_APP was removed from the EPICS base templates in 2008 with release 3.14.10. That version also introduced a new version of configure/CONFIG, which is much more useful.

Hi Keenan, It would also be a good idea to replace Makefile and RULES* in the configure directory with those from the 3.15.5 templates/makeBaseApp/top/configure directory. They have changed somewhat from the very old versions in many modules, and it would be good to be using recent versions. I did that for all of the synApps modules I am responsible for yesterday.
