Add Porting/mksample
This script was previously in the metaconfig repository, and also dealt with updating Porting/Glossary, but it wasn't being regularly used. It does not use any data from that repository, so is better placed here. There are some outstanding ambiguities to resolve in when this script should be run in the documentation, since the generated files Porting/config.sh and Porting/config_H are also updated by other means.
