[m-rev.] diff: updates for nested module bug fix

[Fergus Henderson]

Branches: main
Estimated hours taken: 0.25

tests/invalid/Mmakefile:
	Re-enable the `sub_b' and `sub_c' test cases, since the problem
	with Mmake dependencies for nested modules which was breaking
	those test cases is fixed now, after petdr's recent change to
	modules.m, I'm pretty sure.

doc/reference_manual.texi:
	Delete the documentation about the nested module Mmake dependency bug,
	since that bug is fixed, I'm pretty sure.

-When using nested modules,
-the Mercury build tool Mmake sometimes tries to build things in the
-wrong order and hence reports spurious errors about @samp{.int*} files
-not being found.  In these cases, simply typing @samp{mmake} again will
-usually solve the problem.  (If it doesn't, the work-around is
-to use separate sub-modules rather than nested sub-modules, i.e. put
-the sub-modules in a separate source file.)

 Using @samp{mmake} to do parallel makes (e.g. @samp{mmake --jobs 2})
 doesn't always work correctly if you're using nested sub-modules.
