[Dnsmasq-discuss] [PATCH v1] Fix dependency in make install target

The make target 'install-common' expects results from the target 'all'.
A 'make -j install' may fail because both targets are brought
up-to-todate in parallel. As a result the final binary will not exist at
the time 'install-common' runs, because 'all' is not yet done.

Adjust the dependencies to update 'all' before processing 'install-common'.
