    build: make sure build fails when running kconfig fails
    
    Because of using "-include", failure to (re)build auto.conf (with
    auto.conf.cmd produced as a secondary target) won't stop make from
    continuing the build. Arrange for it being possible to drop the - from
    Rules.mk, requiring that the include be skipped for tools-only targets.
    Note that relying on the inclusion in those cases wouldn't be correct
    anyway, as it might be a stale file (yet to be rebuilt) which would be
    included, while during initial build, the file would be absent
    altogether.
    
    Fixes: 8d4c17a90b0a ("xen/build: silence make warnings about missing 
auto.conf*")
