[m-rev.] for review: minor improvement to ilasm use in library/Mmakefile

[Fergus Henderson]

I picked this idea up from Serge Lidin on the Dotnet mailing list.
The following is as yet untested.

Estimated hours taken: 0.5
Branches: main

library/Mmakefile:
	Invoke ILASM on multiple .il files at once,
	rather than using `cat' to concatenate them together.
	This reduces disk space usage and compilation time a little.
