It is a requirement from the perf todo list:
The feature tests should be performed only when a file that needs those tests,
or at least only when some .c or .h file will be rebuilt
An initial step would be for 'make install-doc' not to run the feature
tests,
there it is not needed at all.
By adding 'install-doc' to the NON_CONFIG_TARGETS, it will skip running the
feature tests for such target. The Auto-detecting system features list will
not be displayed:
$ make install-doc
BUILD: Doing 'make -j2' parallel build
SUBDIR Documentation
make[2]: Nothing to be done for 'install'.
