proposed ebuild

AFAICT, the current ebuild suffers from two main issues.

The first one in the "configure" (and "configure.ac"), is the cause of a sandbox violation: the configure invokes a make inside the kernel tree in order to read the kernel version. This can be overridden (hopefully the verb is correct).

The second is the cause of bug #697736: knem-1.1.3 works with kernels < 5.7 .

On the "minor" side, the homepage has changed to 
https://knem.gitlabpages.inria.fr/ , the source URI to https://gitlab.inria.fr, and the license from "GPL-2 LGPL-2" to "BSD GPL-2".

All these issues are accounted in the attachment, with a personal addition: it is my opinion that without modules, knem is not that effective, ad thus I added a "+" to "modules" in IUSE.
