Ignore more built file litter

Thanks for the patch!

I chose to do http://cgit.freedesktop.org/polkit/commit/?id=b19b4637c5d357f50f34a073a134e9dcd727fa1f instead.  There's more to do here, but git.mk takes us pretty far.

Am I using this wrong?  AFAICS this was not an improvement:

$ git status --porcelain
?? INSTALL
?? aclocal.m4
?? compile
?? config.guess
?? config.h.in
?? config.sub
?? depcomp
?? gtk-doc.m4
?? gtk-doc.make
?? install-sh
?? ltmain.sh
?? missing
?? test-driver
?? test/mocklibc/Makefile.in
?? test/mocklibc/aclocal.m4
?? test/mocklibc/autom4te.cache/
?? test/mocklibc/bin/Makefile.in
?? test/mocklibc/compile
?? test/mocklibc/config.guess
?? test/mocklibc/config.h.in
?? test/mocklibc/config.sub
?? test/mocklibc/configure
?? test/mocklibc/depcomp
?? test/mocklibc/install-sh
?? test/mocklibc/ltmain.sh
?? test/mocklibc/missing
?? test/mocklibc/src/Makefile.in
?? test/mocklibc/test-driver

Honestly I am fine with whatever clean solution anyone cares to implement, but as far as spending my time on this, I’d rather commit Stef’s patch and commit to babysitting the .gitignore files manually rather than commit to comaintaining the git.mk magic.
