[FYI] {maint} hacking: distribute it, and mention it in the ChangeLog

[Stefano Lattarini]

Not distributing the HACKING file might make it more difficult,
for some random curious user, to get informed about or interested
in the Automake development process, or to send us patches.

* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add HACKING.
* HACKING: It's OK to distribute this file, and to mention it in
the ChangeLog.
