Details:
- Updated the build system so that "lesser" Makefiles, such as those in
belonging to example code or the testsuite, may be run even if the
directory is orphaned from the original build tree. This allows a
user to configure, compile, and install BLIS, delete the build tree
(that is, the source distribution, or the build directory for out-
of-tree builds) and then compile example or testsuite code and link
against the installed copy of BLIS (provided the example or testsuite
directory was preserved or obtained from another source). The only
requirement is that make be invoked while setting the
BLIS_INSTALL_PATH variable to the same installation prefix used when
BLIS was configured. The easiest syntax is:
make BLIS_INSTALL_PATH=/install/prefix
though it's also permissible to set BLIS_INSTALL_PATH as an
environment variable prior to running 'make'.
- Updated all lesser Makefiles to implement the new aforementioned build
behavior.
- Relocated check-blastest.sh and check-blistest.sh from build to
blastest and testsuite, respectively, so that if those directories are
copied elsewhere the user can still run 'make check' locally.
- Updated docs/Testsuite.md with language that mentions this new option
of building/linking against an installed copy of BLIS.
