Using one Makefile per example subdirectory essentially serializes 'make' calls. Convert to one example/Makefile that builds and distributes all the subdir files. This reduces example/ rebuild time from about 5.8 seconds to 1.5 seconds on my machine.One slight difference is that we no longer ship Makefile.am with the examples in the rpm. This was virtually useless anyways since the Makefile was very specific to libvirt infrastructure, so wasn't generically reusable anyways. Tested with 'make distcheck' and 'make rpm'
Looks good to me, ACK. I've never realized that such separation spoils the parallel build. But of course it does, since there is onely one process needed for each of those example directories. I also thought it has the added benefit of Makefile per example soit can be shown, but that has no usage at all. So this is nice, I would just want to know if we could also speed up the compilation by passing some hints to $(MAKE) so that it knows that using more than one process for that subdirectory would be wasting.
