Currently the individual IP core dependencies are tracked inside the
library Makefile for Xilinx IPs and the project Makefiles only reference
the IP cores.
For Altera on the other hand the individual dependencies are tracked inside
the project Makefile. This leads to a lot of duplicated lists and also
means that the project Makefiles need to be regenerated when one of the IP
cores changes their files.
Change the Altera projects to a similar scheme than the Xilinx projects.
The projects themselves only reference the library as a whole as their
dependency while the library Makefile references the individual source
dependencies.
Since on Altera there is no target that has to be generated create a dummy
target called ".timestamp_altera" who's only purpose is to have a timestamp
that is greater or equal to the timestamp of all of the IP core files. This
means the project Makefile can have a dependency on this file and make sure
that the project will be rebuild if any of the files in the library
changes.
This patch contains quite a bit of churn, but hopefully it reduces the
amount of churn in the future when modifying Altera IP cores.

This reduces the amount of boilerplate code that is present in these
Makefiles by a lot.
It also makes it possible to update the Makefile rules in future without
having to re-generate all the Makefiles.

The ADI JESD204 link layer cores are a implementation of the JESD204 link
layer. They are responsible for handling the control signals (like SYNC and
SYSREF) and controlling the link state machine as well as performing
per-lane (de-)scrambling and character replacement.
Architecturally the cores are separated into two components.
1) Protocol processing cores (jesd204_rx, jesd204_tx). These cores take
care of the JESD204 protocol handling. They have configuration and status
ports that allows to configure their behaviour and monitor the current
state. The processing cores run entirely in the lane_rate/40 clock domain.
They have a upstream and a downstream port that accept and generate raw PHY
level data and transport level payload data (which is which depends on the
direction of the core).
2) Configuration interface cores (axi_jesd204_rx, axi_jesd204_tx). The
configuration interface cores provide a register map interface that allow
access to the to the configuration and status interfaces of the processing
cores. The configuration cores are responsible for implementing the clock
domain crossing between the lane_rate/40 and register map clock domain.
These new cores are compatible to all ADI converter products using the
JESD204 interface.
