dependencies: check minimal make version early on

Although support/dependencies/dependencies.sh checks for the version of make,
this script doesn't get a chance to run if make encounters a syntax error as a
result of being too old.

For example, the following syntax is only supported from make 3.81 onwards:

ifeq ($(BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT),y)
include toolchain/toolchain-buildroot.mk
else ifeq ($(BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL),y)
include toolchain/toolchain-external.mk
else ifeq ($(BR2_TOOLCHAIN_CTNG),y)
include toolchain/toolchain-crosstool-ng.mk
endif

This patch adds a check for the version of make very early in the Makefile, so
that old make versions are handled gracefully.
