Description

When building Suricata it could be useful for users to know what are the available flags/features that can be compiled to Suricata and what dependencies those features require.

Configure parameters are e.g.:

--enable-ebpf --enable-ebpf-build --enable-nfqueue --enable-dpdk \
--enable-http2-decompression --enable-unix-socket --enable-af-packet\ 
--enable-libmagic --enable-lua --enable-geoip --enable-hiredis

The full list of parameters of the configure script can be obtained from:
./configure --help

Possible example: https://nginx.org/en/docs/configure.html

I'm a student working on an assignment and would like to claim #6824 to document configure parameters. I've signed the CLA and will submit a PR soon. Philchris Otieno / github-username:Chris-ic
