After building with CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y, many .*.d files are left
in lib/test_fortify/ because the compiler outputs header dependencies
into *.d without fixdep being invoked.
When compiling C files, if_changed_dep should be used so that the
auto-generated header dependencies are recorded in .*.cmd files.
Currently, if_changed is incorrectly used, and only two headers are
hard-coded in lib/Makefile.
In the previous patch version, the kbuild test robot detected new errors
on GCC 7.
GCC 7 or older does not produce test.d with the following test code:
$ echo 'void b(void) __attribute__((__error__(""))); void a(void) { b(); }' |
gcc -Wp,-MMD,test.d -c -o /dev/null -x c -
Perhaps, this was a bug that existed in older GCC versions.
Skip the tests for GCC<=7 for now, as this will be eventually solved
when we bump the minimal supported GCC version.

This script is only used in lib/test_fortify/.
There is no reason to keep it in scripts/.

There are some issues in the test_fortify Makefile code.
Problem 1: cc-disable-warning invokes compiler dozens of times
To see how many times the cc-disable-warning is evaluated, change
this code:
$(call cc-disable-warning,fortify-source)
to:
$(call cc-disable-warning,$(shell touch /tmp/fortify-$$$$)fortify-source)
Then, build the kernel with CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y. You will see a
large number of '/tmp/fortify-<PID>' files created:
$ ls -1 /tmp/fortify-* | wc
80 80 1600
This means the compiler was invoked 80 times just for checking the
-Wno-fortify-source flag support.
$(call cc-disable-warning,fortify-source) should be added to a simple
variable instead of a recursive variable.
Problem 2: do not recompile string.o when the test code is updated
The test cases are independent of the kernel. However, when the test
code is updated, $(obj)/string.o is rebuilt and vmlinux is relinked
due to this dependency:
$(obj)/string.o: $(obj)/$(TEST_FORTIFY_LOG)
always-y is suitable for building the log files.
Problem 3: redundant code
clean-files += $(addsuffix .o, $(TEST_FORTIFY_LOGS))
... is unneeded because the top Makefile globally cleans *.o files.
This commit fixes these issues and makes the code readable.
