This allows to detect -s option without checking GNU Make version.

As commit e36aaea28972 ("kbuild: Fix silent builds with make-4")
pointed out, GNU Make 4.x changed the way/order it presents the
command line options into MAKEFLAGS.

In Make 3.8x, 's' is always be the first in a group of short options.
The group could be prefixed with '-'.

In Make 4.x, 's' is always the last in a group of short options.

As commit e6ac89fabd03 ("kbuild: Correctly deal with make options
which contain an 's'") addressed, we also need to deal with long
options that end with 's', like --warn-undefined-variables.

Test cases:

[1] command line input:    make --silent
     -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 3.8x:    s
     -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 4.x :    s

[2] command line input:    make -srR
     -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 3.8x:    sRr
     -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 4.x :    rRs

[3] command line input:    make -s -rR --warn-undefined-variables
     -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 3.8x:    --warn-undefined-variables -sRr
     -> MAKEFLAGS for Make 4.x :    rRs --warn-undefined-variables

We can take care of them, by filtering out long options (--%),
then matching -s% s% %s patterns.

Good idea, that's a much cleaner way.
