Implement new default target logic, canonical directory name (empty value)

The logic is as follows: if we have an explicit current directory
target, then that's the default target. Otherwise, we take the
first target and use it as a prerequisite to create an implicit
current directory target, effectively making it the default
target via an alias. If there are no targets in this buildfile,
then we don't do anything.
