No need for $(AUTOSRCS), GNU make can generate them as needed when
trying to build them as needed when trying to build the object. Also,
those two AUTOSRCS don't need to be a prerequisite of "all". As for
the "clean" target, those two files are already removed via "_*.c".

We don't need $(AUTOINCS) either:
- As for both _libxl_savm_msgs*.h headers, we are adding more
  selective dependencies so the headers will still be generated as
  needed.
- "clean" rule already delete the _*.h files, so AUTOINCS aren't needed
  there.

"libxl_internal_json.h" doesn't seems to have ever existed, so the
dependency is removed.

Add few prerequisite for "libxl_internal.h" so all headers that it
depends on should be generated. And have $(SAVE_HELPER_OBJS) depends
on "libxl_internal.h".

Rework objects prerequisites, to have them dependents on either
"libxl.h" or "libxl_internal.h". "libxl.h" is not normally included
directly in the source code as "libxl_internal.h" is used instead. But
we are adding "libxl.h" as prerequisite of "libxl_internal.h", so
generated headers will still be generated as needed.

"testidl.c" doesn't depends on "libxl.h" but "testidl.o" does. Also
use automatic variables $< and $@.
