travis: Update travis to do a `make distcheck` instead of just `make check` (#46)

* travis: Do a `make distcheck` instead of just `make check`

Doing a `make distcheck` instead of just a `make check` ensures that
the build system is sane and that the results from `make dist` have
everything needed.

* build-system: Fixes for `make distcheck`

This commit fixes the `distcheck` target by addressing the following
issues:

 *  Repaired ability to perform builds when the build directory is not
    the source directory.
 *  Addressed an issue with the tarball name that occurs the very
    first time `make` is run.

Build Status

OpenThread is an open-source implementation of the Thread networking protocol. With OpenThread, Nest is making the technology used in Nest products more broadly available to accelerate the development of products for the connected home.

The Thread specification defines an IPv6-based reliable, secure and low-power wireless device-to-device communication protocol for home applications. More information about Thread can be found on threadgroup.org.

Features

  • Highly portable: OS and platform agnostic, with a radio abstraction layer
  • Implements the End Device, Router, Leader & Border Router roles
  • Small memory footprint

OpenThread implements all Thread networking layers, including IPv6, 6LoWPAN, IEEE 802.15.4 with MAC security, Mesh Link Establishment, and Mesh Routing.
