Subject: [PATCH] rules: provide better feedback on missing libraries.

If the library files are missing (haven't been built) it's better to get a
failure message saying that, rather than a failed dependency with no rules to
generated it.

Before: (I'd manually removed the f4 library)
```
$ make clean all V=1
Using ../../../../../libopencm3/ path to library
rm -f *.o *.d *.elf *.bin *.hex *.srec *.list *.map
make: *** No rule to make target `adc-dac-printf.elf', needed by `elf'.  Stop.
```

After:
```
$ make clean all V=1
Using ../../../../../libopencm3/ path to library
rm -f *.o *.d *.elf *.bin *.hex *.srec *.list *.map
arm-none-eabi-gcc -Os -g -Wextra -Wshadow -Wimplicit-function-declaration

-lopencm3_stm32f4 -Wl,--start-group -lc -lgcc -lnosys -Wl,--end-group -o
adc-dac-printf.elf
/home/karlp/tools/gcc-arm-none-eabi-4_9-2015q2/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-eabi/4.9.3/../../../../arm-none-eabi/bin/ld:
cannot find -lopencm3_stm32f4
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [adc-dac-printf.elf] Error 1
```

I strongly feel that the latter is far more informative.
