Ninja has an implicit dependency on the command being run, and kati will
regenerate the ninja manifest if any read makefile changes, so there is no
need to have dependencies on makefiles.
This won't catch all the cases where LOCAL_ADDITIONAL_DEPENDENCIES contains
a .mk file, because a few users of LOCAL_ADDITIONAL_DEPENDENCIES don't
include base_rules.mk, but it will fix the most common ones.

This should obviate much of the need for cleanspecs, and also make it
unnecessary to continue adding LOCAL_ADDITIONAL_DEPENDENCIES for this
sort of thing all over the tree.

This allows one to declare a meta-package that depends on a list
of modules. This is extremely useful for vendor provided prebulit
libraries where there is a big list of libraries/binaries to include.
Specifying that list in multiple places would be error prone and
eventually lead to very annoying bug hunts.
With a fake package, one does:
LOCAL_MODULE := my_fake_package
LOCAL_REQUIRED_MODULES := <list of required module names>
LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := optional
include $(BUILD_PHONY_PACKAGE)
