Less 'make' chatter at top level

* Makefile.in (AM_DEFAULT_VERBOSITY, AM_V_GEN, am__v_GEN_)
(am__v_GEN_0, am__v_GEN_1, AM_V_at, am__v_at_, am__v_at_0)
(am__v_at_1): New macros, copied from src/Makefile.in.
($(srcdir)/src/config.in, ${srcdir}/info/dir):
Be less chatty when not verbose.
($(srcdir)/src/stamp-h.in): Simplify with '$@'.
