Conditional rewrite can keep NUM_APPLETS.h mtime old,
this causes make to try to regenerate it at every invocation.

On user request.
I thought enabling/disabling them all together is more consistent.
Evidently, some people do want them to be separately selectable.

The array applet_nameofs consumes two bytes per applet. It encodes
nofork/noexec flags
suid flags
the offset of the applet name in the applet_name string
Change the applet_table build tool to store the flags in two separate
arrays (applet_flags and applet_suid). Replace applet_nameofs[] with a
smaller version that only stores a limited number of offsets.
This requires changes to the macros APPLET_IS_NOFORK, APPLET_IS_NOEXEC
and APPLET_SUID.
According to Valgrind the original find_applet_by_name required
353 cycles per call, averaged over all names. Adjusting the number
of known offsets allows space to be traded off against execution time:
KNOWN_OFFSETS cycles bytes (wrt KNOWN_OFFSETS = 0)
0 9057 -
2 4604 32
4 2407 75
8 1342 98
16 908 130
32 884 194
This patch uses KNOWN_OFFSETS = 8.
v2:
Remove some dead code from the applet_table tool;
Treat the applet in the middle of the table as a special case.
v3:
Use the middle applet to adjust the start of the linear search as
well as the last applet found.
v4:
Use an augmented linear search in find_applet_by_name.
Drop the special treatment of the middle name from get_applet_name:
most of the advantage now derives from the last stored value.
v5:
Don't store index in applet_nameofs, it can be calculated.
v6:

This change retains "or later" state! No licensing _changes_ here,
only form is adjusted (article, space between "GPL" and "v2" and so on).

just build relevant source and use xxx_main functions.
build system: add a special case when we have exactly one applet enabled
(makes "true", "false", "basename" REALLY tiny).
