Following the discussions in

https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2016-11/msg00326.html

I am sending this patch series which makes GNU make mandatory for building GDB
and GDBserver.

- Patch 1 simply updates the NEWS file
- Patch 2 removes code that is conditional on make being GNU make or not.
- Patches 3 and 4 make use of pattern rules, a GNU make-specific feature.

Patches 3 and 4 replace patches 1 and 2 in the original series.

Simon Marchi (4):
Document new hard requirement on GNU make
Remove code that checks for GNU/non-GNU make
Makefile: Replace old suffix rules with pattern rules
Makefile: Replace explicit subdir rules with pattern rules
