New "make" completion

New "make" completion

Hello all,

I spent 3 frustrating days on a computer science lab,
all due to the fact that I mistyped a variable name. Instead of running
"make SIM=../seq/ssim", I was running "make SEQ=../seq/ssim". Of
course, make didn't complain, so I thought my coding was bad. Turns out
that wasn't the case.

To keep myself (or anyone else) from
making such a mistake again, I've added the ability to complete
variable names for make. They are presented alongside possible targets.
The file is entirely re-written, so I've provided it instead of a diff.
The completion should perform exactly the same as the old completion,
except possibly when including other makefiles.

A TODO: Variable completion should be sensitive to targets given to make. That
is, variables should only be presented if they are used in given
targets and their dependencies.

Oh dear. That's embarrassing. Here you go. I sent it to the old mailing list address at first, and forgot to reattach it when copying my message to the new mailing list address.

It looks like it's missing again.

I'm not sure but if the file is too big it might hit the limit of
the mailing list. You could upload it somewhere else and provide
the link.
