[Couenne] Configure, build and install Couenne

Hi Stefan and Pietro,
A temporary way to download the AMPL solvers could be to use the HTTrack
program (http://www.httrack.com/ ). We can also find this program in apt
repositories for Ubuntu users and we can use its console version by the
command httrack, fact that allow us to write a script. With this program,
we can download the directory
http://www.netlib.org/ampl/solvers/completely. I used HTTrack in its
web browser version, but I think that
it's possible to write a script with it.
It's just an idea.
Now, I have to learn how to use Couenne. :-)
Thank you so much.
Virginia.
