Do not require the submodule, but use it if present (in preference
even to a system copy).  This will allow us to easily use capstone
in older systems for which a package is not available, and also
easily track bug fixes from upstream.

I think this isn't going to work correctly.  In case both capstone and
dtc are used we need a single line with the dependencies, i.e.

  config-host.h: subdir-dtc subdir-capstone

cheers,
  Gerd

Why?  Without a build rule, I thought separate dependency lines accumulated.

Make allows the composition of dependencies, as in:

a: b
a: c

It works as long as at most one a: line contains the rule for building
a, and all the other lines just add dependencies.

I don't like the idea that we should blindly use the submodule
even if the host OS has it installed. This means developers working
on git will never be testing against the capstone that will actually
be used when they deploy a release build on their distro.

It also gives inconsistent behaviour wrt the way the dtc module
is handled, where we always try to use the system version and
only try the submodule if the system version is missing.

Thus I think we really ought to deal with capstone in the same
way as dtc. We could make the check a little more advanced so that
it checks for the particular capstone feature QEMU wants. That way
if someone does have an outdated capstone we'd still use the submodule.

Regards,
Daniel

There's nothing I'm aware of besides bug fixes in between e.g. the fedora26
version of capstone and the one from git.
