In some cases, like for fixdep and shortly for jevents, we need to build a tool
to run on the host that will be used in building a tool, such as perf, that is
being cross compiled, so do like the kernel and provide HOSTCC, HOSTLD and HOSTAR
to do that.

Adding OUTPUT path prefix for fixdep target so we use it properly in out
of tree builds.
If the fixdep already existed in the tree, the out of tree build would
see it already exist and did not build the out of tree version, as
reported by Arnaldo:
[acme@zoo linux]$ make O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf
make: Entering directory '/home/git/linux/tools/perf'
BUILD: Doing 'make -j4' parallel build
make[2]: Nothing to be done for 'fixdep'.
make: Leaving directory '/home/git/linux/tools/perf'

[ Fixed conflict with 5725dd8fa8 ("tools build: Clean CFLAGS and LDFLAGS for fixdep") ]

For dependency tracking we currently use targets that fall out of the
gcc -MD command. We store this info in the .cmd file and include as
makefile during the build.
This format put object as target and all the c and header files as
dependencies, like:
util/abspath.o: util/abspath.c /usr/include/stdc-predef.h util/cache.h \
/usr/include/bits/wordsize.h /usr/include/gnu/stubs.h \
...
If any of those dependency header files (krava.h below) is removed the
build fails on:
make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'krava.h', needed by 'inc.o'. Stop.
This patch adds fixdep helper, that is used by kbuild to alter the shape
of the object dependencies like:
source_util/abspath.o := util/abspath.c
deps_util/abspath.o := \
/usr/include/stdc-predef.h \
util/cache.h \
...
util/abspath.o: $(deps_util/abspath.o)
$(deps_util/abspath.o):
With this format the header removal won't make the build fail, because
it'll be picked up by the last empty target defined for each header.
As previously mentioned the fixdep tool is taken from kbuild. It's not
complete backport, only the part that alters the standard dependency
info was taken, the part that adds the CONFIG_* dependency logic will be
probably taken later on.
