please provide release tarballs #22

issues like #10, #11 could be prevented by publishing release tarballs. Please run make dist with a clean checkout and build of ocesql-1.2 and attach the result to https://github.com/opensourcecobol/Open-COBOL-ESQL/releases/tag/v1.2 - the current "assets" are only source snaphots and don't have the correct timestamps, which is the reason that bison, flex, automake and others are run - which should not be the case (both to prevent missing/mismatched toolset of those maintainer tools [= removing unnecessary dependencies] to break the build and to actually provide a tested release version).

I've found the reason for this issue two weeks ago - the Makefiles and configure.ac are actually not clean, a working make dist does not exist. I plan to fix this and a bunch of other stuff; @n-isaka @minemaz @ytr-sakamoto do you see an option to pull those in? Note: I definitely would prefer to do my changes under (L)GPLv3+would this be OK for PR, too, or do you have a need to stay on the old version?
