To do so, the Makefile stores the contents of the MALLOC environment
variable in a file named .make-malloc. When the contents of this file
and the MALLOC variable are not equal, it forces a rebuild of the Redis
source tree.
A side-effect of this change is that choosing an allocator can now be
done using the single MALLOC variable instead of USE_TCMALLOC,
USE_JEMALLOC and so forth. These variables continue to work for
backwards compatibility.

This change moves the build instructions for dependencies to a separate
Makefile in deps/. The ARCH environment variable is stored in a
.make-arch file in the same directory as the Makefile. The contents of
this file is read and compared to the current ARCH, and, on a mismatch
triggers rebuilding the entire source tree.
When file .make-arch exists and matches with ARCH from the environment,
the dependencies are assumed to already be built.
The new "clean" target only cleans the Redis source tree, not its
dependencies. To clear the dependencies as well, the "distclean" target
can be used.
