Darryl L. MilesandClaude Opus 4.8 2b4fcf5968 build: include rules.mak from source, drop the build-top copy
rules.mak has no @...@ substitutions, so there is no reason to copy it into
the build top.  Point all 38 subdir Makefile.in includes at the source copy
directly -- ${MAGICSRC}/rules.mak instead of ${MAGICDIR}/rules.mak -- and
remove AC_CONFIG_FILES([rules.mak:rules.mak]) from configure.  defs.mak (the
one make fragment with substitutions) remains the only generated file in the
build top.  readline/ and the top Makefile never included rules.mak, so they
are unaffected; AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR(rules.mak) (the srcdir sentinel) is kept.

Now editing rules.mak in the source tree takes effect without reconfiguring.

Verified rc=0, 375 files, both in-tree and out-of-tree; out-of-tree build
top has no rules.mak; distclean rc=0.

TODO
----

NOTE:  nested enums are broken do to dynamic binning.

Don't rebuild entire bplane when bbox grows.
unsubbing sometimes.


Some (remaining) bplane design issues:

groups?
	idea: support small number of groups by having
	separate bplane for each group.  Do selection this
	way.  Logically layered on top of bplanes - but may	
	want to integrate.  
	DECISION:  defer for now.

pack/unpack?
	Seems incompatible with user alloc/dealloc.
	Complicated.
	DECISION:  Forget it.

coarse/fine with cache.
	can be added later.  should fit in nicely.
	no special support needed.

integrated find/add?
	can add later.  
	don't worry about it now.
	
May want to add attributes, via external hash.
