The actonc name remains as a compatibility symlink target, but Makefile recipes should not use it as the compiler command anymore. Build and test targets now depend on dist/bin/acton where they invoke the compiler. Distribution recipes call ../bin/acton directly while still shipping dist/bin/actonc.

This keeps the actonc compatibility symlink in place, but switches Makefile recipes that actually invoke the compiler to use acton.
The base and std distribution builds, incremental and online test prerequisites, and release version lookup now use the canonical dist/bin/acton path. actonc remains only as the compatibility target and install alias.
