- Fix average iowait output of sar [bsc#1174227]
* The iowait value reported by the kernel can also decrement as
a result of inaccurate iowait tracking. Waiting on IO can be
first accounted as iowait but then instead as idle. Therefore
if the idle value during the same period did not decrease then
consider this is a problem with the iowait reporting and correct
the previous value according to the new reading. Otherwise, treat
this as CPU coming back online.
- Add patch sysstat-iowait-decr.patch

- update to 12.4.0:
* All commands: Display statistics in color by default when the
output is connected to a terminal.

makes the reports easier to read when long item names are used).
* iostat: No longer use sysstat.ioconf file to determine the name
of the devices. This file gave a wrong name for some devices
with big minor numbers.
* iostat, sar: Make device name consistent between both of them.

cron daemon even if systemd is installed.

macro. Remove other obsolete autoconf macros.

to wait for a random delay.
* configure: Fix --enable-debuginfo option.
