Make:Allow for extension in tool names.
In some build environments executable programs have a specific file
extension. The value of BIN_EXT is appended to the relevant tool file
names to allow for this.
The value of BIN_EXT is set, where appropriate, by the build environment
specific make helper (to .exe for Windows build environments).
.gitignore is updated to hide the new (.exe) files.
