Title: Run AM_PROG_AR to fix build with newer automake

With automake 1.12.6, I'm seeing the following warning (treated as an error) when running autogen.sh:

automake: warnings are treated as errors
/usr/share/automake-1.12/am/ltlibrary.am: warning: 'libsmack.la': linking libtool libraries using a non-POSIX
/usr/share/automake-1.12/am/ltlibrary.am: archiver requires 'AM_PROG_AR' in 'configure.ac'
libsmack/Makefile.am:8: while processing Libtool library 'libsmack.la'
libsmack/Makefile.am: installing 'build-aux/depcomp'
autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 1

This commit resolves the issue by running AM_PROG_AR if it is defined.
