Build system: Trigger dependency checking only for build targets
The Makefile used to specify a blacklist of rules for which
dependency checking must not be triggered. This list included
cleaning rules only, whereas all other non-build targets (e.g.
help, checkpatch, etc.) should also be included.
This approach seems a bit fragile because it is easy to forget
some non-building rules in the blacklist, as the experience
showed us. It is more robust to specify a whitelist of rules
for which dependency checking is required.
Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#112
