libitm: Fixes typos in various files

This commit corrects typos in libitm, improving code quality and reducing potential errors.

This commit resolves typos in several files within the libitm library, including acinclude.m4, dispatch.h, method-gl.cc, method-ml.cc, and method-serial.cc. These fixes enhance code readability, contributing to more maintainable code and potentially preventing future errors.

In Details

libitm is the GNU transactional memory library. It provides support for atomic transactions in C and C++. This commit fixes typos in the configure scripts, the dispatch header (which defines how transactions are handled), and various method implementations (GL, ML, Serial). The impact is low unless the typos were in critical path code.

For Context

libitm is a library that provides support for transactional memory, a technique that simplifies concurrent programming by allowing multiple operations to be grouped into atomic transactions. This commit fixes typos in the source code of libitm, improving the code's readability and maintainability. While these typos likely didn't cause functional problems, fixing them enhances overall code quality.
