Make it so "make depend" is a generic target, like "make clean".
Each Makefile has a "depend" target that indicates whether making
dependencies means creating ".dep" or creating ".ltdep" (or, I
suppose, both, though none do that right now). Both files get
created even if there are no CFILES to scan (to ensure the target
up-to-date). The "default" target now depends on "depend" (there is
no "ltdepend" any more).
Remove the "depend" and "ltdepend" definitions from the "buildrules"
file; only the actual generated files (".dep" and ".ltdep") remain
as generic targets. The "depend' target is still defined as phony.
Do a shell trick when expanding the value of CFILES, to avoid a
problem that occurs if it is created by "make" by concatentating two
empty strings. The problem was that in that case CFILES will
contain a space, and that wasn't getting treated as empty as
desired.
Make the rule for tool/lib dependencies more generic, to reflect the
general desire that "lib" subdirectories need to be built before
things in the "tool" subdirectories.

There's no need to re-make the dependency files all the time. Make
it so the "depend" target rebuilds the ".dep" file only if necessary.
Also change the name of the dependency file created for "ltdepend"
to be ".ltdep".

Currently the xfstest builds do not have any automatic dependency
calculations. It relies on a separate make depend run to build or
update dependency information. It also relies on an external
makedepend binary. If that binary does not exist, the dependencies
do not get calculated.
To remove the dependency on makedepend, gcc can be used instead as
it has a command to generate dependency information. This patch
changes the dependency rule building to use gcc.
In case anyone uses an old (several years) gcc compiler or a
compiler that doesn't support gcc compatible dependency generation,
a new configure check is added to turn off dependency checking so
builds can still be done.
To use the dependencies automatically, we need to use a special
include makefile directive to include the build dependencies into
the current makefile. Essentially once the dependencies are
calculated, they can be included into the makefile and make will
recalculate the build dependencies automatically based on that
information.
Hence we get a build that automatically calculates and keeps
dependencies up to date without dependence on any external tools.

We don't need to see every compiler command line for every file that
is compiled. This makes it hard to see warnings and errors during
compile. For progress notification, we really only need to see the
directory/file being operated on.
Turn down the verbosity of output by suppressing various make output
and provide better overall visibility of which directory is being
operated on, what the operation is and what is being done to the
files by the build/clean process.
This patch only addresses the top level makefile and build rules; it
does not clean up the subdirectories - these will be addressed by a
followup patch. It also does not touch the dmapi section of the
xfstests build system.
The old style verbose builds can still be run via "make V=1 ..."
