[bug #61042] Enhance implicit rule search logging

[Paul D. Smith]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #61042 (project make):

Dmitry I'm not sure about this change:


@@ -744,15 +752,9 @@ pattern_search (struct file *file, int archive,
                   /* If this prereq is also explicitly mentioned for FILE,

expl_d->next)

                   /* The DEP->changed flag says that this dependency resides
                      in a nonexistent directory.  So we normally can skip


Why are we removing this shortcut here?  It seems like we're paying a cost
everywhere to get better output when debugging is enabled...?  Or is there
some correctness reason to remove this?
