remove never working setuid helper code from the build-system.
refer to the Changelog for a longer reason. In conclusion, this
is what people expect, this is what Package Managers patch away
for portability, and we can't use install(1) for this because
it's not a portable tool.

2 | Remove setuid helpers. They never worked as intended. The | ||
3 | fixed version is not portable and the defacto good way to | ||
4 | handle this which is most portable is to let package managers | ||
5 | handle this (as they do right now, the good ones), and let | ||
6 | people handle this who read the documentation. | ||
7 | This commit removes what would be patched out by the majority | ||
8 | of package managers, which is setuid handling in Makefiles. | ||
9 | It is very likely that no one will notice this code is gone. | ||
