Summary: move GARBAGE_DIRS and DIST_GARBAGE to moz.build → move GARBAGE_DIRS and GARBAGE to moz.build
Along a similar vein as my recent comments, aren't GARBAGE_DIRS and friends almost always associated with rules in Makefile.in files? If so, I argue we shouldn't do this.

Logic can still be reworked, deprecated, whatever later on but let's get drive the Makefile.in count to 0 then work on the longer term answers.
