Kir Kolyshkin 25a1acd8cc nmk/script: rm bad code
I discovered that the scripts/ suffix is added to __nmk_dir despite
the fact it already contains it, ending in obviously wrong filenames
like scripts/nmk/scripts/scripts/msg.mk. As those files are non-existent,
make tried to recreate every .mk file, spawninga child to execute 'true'
command, like this (part of "make -dr" output):

> Considering target file '../scripts/nmk/scripts/scripts/include.mk'.
>  File '../scripts/nmk/scripts/scripts/include.mk' does not exist.
>  Finished prerequisites of target file
> '../scripts/nmk/scripts/scripts/include.mk'.
> Must remake target '../scripts/nmk/scripts/scripts/include.mk'.

The fix was to remove the extra scripts/, but once I did it, I found
out problem #2: these targets, being defined in contents that is often
included in the beginning of Makefiles, hijacks the default make
target (the first one in the Makefile), breaking the usual and
expected make behavior, and forcing to use .DEFAULT_GOAL.

Finally, I don't know why these targets are there, i.e. what purpose
do they serve. Maybe it was done to exclude any implicit rules to
re-make those files, but there are no such rules as far as I can see.

So, in order to address problem #2, I have removed these targets.
I don't see any harm in doing that; let me know if it breaks anything.

NMK

NMK stands for NetMaKe -- is a very simple framework for make build system. Most ideas are taken from the Linux kernel kbuild system.
