Subject: [PATCH] Makefile: separate meson rerun from the rest of the ninja
 invocation

The rules to build Makefile.mtest are suffering from the "tunnel vision"
problem that is common with recursive makefiles.  Makefile.mtest depends
on build.ninja, but Make does not know when build.ninja needs to be
rebuilt before creating Makefile.mtest.

To fix this, separate the ninja invocation into the "regenerate build
files" phase and the QEMU build phase.  Sentinel files such as
meson-private/coredata.dat or build.ninja are used to figure out the
phases that haven't run yet; however, because those files' timestamps
are not guaranteed to be touched, the usual makefile stamp-file trick
is used on top.
