subdir-objects: improve "make mostlyclean" efficiency and flexibility Fixes automake bug#10697. Before this change, the generated Makefile issued one 'rm' invocation for each subdir object file. Not only was this very inefficient when there were several such files, but it also caused stale object files to be left behind when a source file was renamed or removed. * automake.in (handle_single_transform): When a subdir object is seen, update '%compile_clean_files' to clean all the compiled objects in its same subdirectory, and all the libtool compiled objects ('.lo') there as well is that subdir object is a libtool one. * t/subobj-clean-pr10697.sh: New test. * t/subobj-clean-lt-pr10697.sh: Likewise. * t/list-of-tests.mk: Add them. * NEWS: Update.
