[PATCH] Enable automake silent rules

Use AM_SILENT_RULES, to enable automake silent rules (by default), if we
are using a version of automake which supports it (>=1.11).

Silent rules can be disabled by configuring with '--disable-silent-rules',
or invoking 'make V=1'.

For ease of reviewing, this patch doesn't contain configure and
Makefile.in regeneration.

Future work: There are a few compilations which are not silenced by
this, as they use custom rules.
