Previously make_etags always ran make_ctags -e when make_etags was
executed. However, because non-Exuberant ctags on Mac does not
support -e option (and also on other platforms including old Linux),
ctags failed. To avoid the failure change make_ctags so that if
non-Exuberant ctags is used and ctags -e option is requested, run
etags command instead. If etags command does not exist, make_ctags
will fail.
Also refactor make_ctags and tweak make_etags to emit proper usage
message.

make_ctags did not include field members of structs since the commit
964d01ae90.
For example, in the following field of RestrictInfo:
Selectivity norm_selec pg_node_attr(equal_ignore);
pg_node_attr was mistakenly interpreted to be the name of the field.
To fix this, add -I option to ctags command if the command is
Exuberant ctags or Universal ctags (for plain old ctags, struct
members are not included in the tags file anyway).
Also add "-e" and "-n" options to make_ctags. The -e option invokes
ctags command with -e option, which produces TAGS file for emacs. This
allows to eliminate duplicate codes in make_etags so that make_etags
just exec make_ctags with -e option.
The -n option allows not to produce symbolic links in each
sub directory (the default is producing symbolic links).

If ctags (resp. etags) isn't installed, these scripts naturally fail,
but the error messages were less clear than one could wish.
It seems worth installing an explicit test to improve that.
