build: show a hint for BSD make (#7275)
BSD Make will give preference to a BSDmakefile in the same directory over a generic Makefile; this can be used to instruct BSD users to build neovim with GNU Make (gmake) instead. Otherwise, a flood of syntax errors stemming from the GNU-specific Makefile will be displayed - which most BSD users are accustomed to, but may confuse beginners nevertheless.
