Details:
1) export more functions that allow access to some of the internal workings of
make, eg:
* make existing macro functions like func_strip, etc non-static and available
in the public interface header(s). Obviously I could use gmk_eval or
gmk_expand but I'd rather be able to call them directly.
* functions like lookup_variable, or a watered down version of it. Adding a
new macro like $(ifdef VARNAME, <true>, <false>) or anything similar currently
requires either creating your own extern decl for it and hoping the interface
doesn't change, or going through gmk_expand and using $(origin) or somesuch.
2) add a callback interface with various events we can add functions to; for
example, if I wanted to add a callback for logging purposes.
