Hello,

INSTALL says that I have to explicitly specify --with-serf when running
./configure to enable ra_serf. This doesn't seem to be the case because
pkg-config is used to automatically detect whether libserf is installed on
the system.

(I think that the current wording is from the ra_neon era, when --with-serf
selected ra_serf instead of ra_neon).

Log message:

* INSTALL
  (I.C.7): clarify that libserf is automatically detected by pkg-config
