shared_bindings_matrix: Use a trivial target

jepler · jepler · commit 8f81beea7e83 · 2020-05-25T13:46:30.000-05:00
Sommersoft noticed that without submodules (as RTD currently does),
the "make -qp" failed due to trying to find files within submodules.

The "print-VAR" target doesn't have any dependencies, so it sidesteps
the problem.

If we move ulab's pyi files into the submodule, though, we'll need to
fetch submodules anyway during doc building.
