Makefile: hide stderr of curl-config test

You will get

    $ make distclean 2>&1 | grep curl
    /bin/sh: curl-config: not found
    /bin/sh: curl-config: not found
    /bin/sh: curl-config: not found
    /bin/sh: curl-config: not found
    /bin/sh: curl-config: not found
    $

if you don't have a curl development package installed.

The intent is not to alarm the user, but just to test if there is
a new enough curl installed.  However, if you look at search engine
suggested completions, the above "error" messages are confusing
people into thinking curl is a hard requirement.

Redirect this error output to /dev/null as it is not necessary to be
shown to the end users.
