[PATCH 00/11] Makefile: fix "Perl" and "Python" rules, speed up re-builds

["Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason" <avarab@gmail.com>]

This topic is split-up from v4 of ab/make-dependency[1]. Range-diff to
it below. As noted in [2] I opted to split up that series rather than
having it grow too large.

This is miscellanious cleanups related to the "Perl" rules, and some
fixes for bad dependency rules in 08/11. Then in 10/11 we make the
"Python" rules use the new template we created for "Perl",

We are then able to speed up "make" re-builds a bit in 11/11, as we
don't need to inject @@GIT_VERSION@@ into the Perl scripts anymore.

The 09/11 is new. It's a trivial sorting of the PERL_DEFINES list,
which'll help to maintain it in the future.
