The merge commit 0b26e59c8f5d didn't cause any conflicts in
libinstaller/ so this bug went unnoticed, but we need to sync the
merged libinstaller/Makefile with the changes in 1408e6ca7b38 ("Add
per-firmware object directory support").

<title>Add per-firmware object directory support</title>

Now that we have multiple firmware backends it no longer makes sense
to write object files to the same directory as their source. A better
solution is to write the object files to a per-firmware directory
under a top-level object directory.

The top-level object directory can be specified on the command-line
with the O= variable, e.g. make O=/tmp/obj. If no top-level object
directory is specified an 'obj' directory is created in the top-level
of the Syslinux source repository.

All the existing make targets continue to work as before, however now
they apply to all firmware backends, e.g. 'make installer' will build
the BIOS, 32-bit EFI and 64-bit EFI installers and place them under
$(OBJ)/bios, $(OBJ)/efi32 and $(OBJ)/efi64 respectively.

Note unlike every other bit of Syslinux, the gpxe objects are still
kept in the src directory, e.g. gpxe/src, since gpxe is only required
by the BIOS backend.

It is possible to specify a make target for a specific firmware or
list of firmware with the following syntax,

    make [firmware[,firmware]] [target[,target]]

To clean the object directory for just the BIOS firmware type,

      'make bios clean'

To build both the 32-bit and 64-bit EFI installers type,

     'make efi32 efi64 installer'

Since the Syslinux make infrastructure is now more complex a new file
doc/building.txt has been created to explain how to build Syslinux.

The top-level Makefile now exports some make variables for use in
module Makefiles,

    - topdir - the top-level source directory of the Syslinux
      repository, e.g. /usr/src/syslinux

    - objdir - the top-level object directory for the firmware
      backend currently being built, e.g. /obj/syslinux/bios

    - SRC - the source directory in the Syslinux repository for the
      module currently being built,
      e.g. /usr/src/syslinux/com32/libupload

    - OBJ - the object directory for the module currently being
      built, e.g. /obj/syslinux/bios/com32/libupload

Since we're rewriting the Makefile infrastructure anyway it seemed
like a good idea to add parallel support. By writing subdirectories as
prequisites for make targets the objects in those subdirectories can
be built in parallel.

Because ldlinux.c32 is required for Syslinux to function correctly, we
should be installing it automatically much like ldlinux.sys.

Add a "make strip" target, to make doing the official build easier.
We want the official build to have stripped binaries for size reasons,
so do it right and make it an actual build target.

EXTLINUX as a separate derivative.  All the disk-based systems now use
the same code.

Thus we can share same command line options and reduce a lot of dup
code...

Seems like a big patch, but the changes are quite safe, no much logical
change.

which are an intermediate stage toward building the installers, in the
libinstaller directory, since that directory is used by all the
