The handling of demos has not been up to the same quality as the rest of the build. Worst of all is the use of non-named argument macros, which makes the macro calls very hard to decipher.

The driver behind this fix is that I need to understand properly this code to be able to clean up flag handling. But when addressing that, I used to chance to also give CompileDemos some well-needed TLC. For instance, I have also fixed so:
* "make clean-demos" clean demos.
* Moved closed logic out of open makefiles
* Long specialized recipes are now using simpler, more integrated approaches
