[Automake-ng] [PATCH 1/4] [ng] compiling: implement VPATH rewrites using GNU make primitives

[Stefano Lattarini]

This will shave off extra forks from compilation rules.  No semantic
change is expected from this commit.  Suggestion from Eric Bake.

* lib/am/depend2.am (am__vpath_rewrite): New internal macro,
implements VPATH rewrites only using GNU make primitives.
Use it in several compilation rules.
