Overall, this appears to reduce the amount of implicit rule searches by
~93.3% (~97.5% compared to a8f01a3) for the default build and by
~83.3% (~99.3% compared to a8f01a3) for the "man" target (as an
example):
$ git show --pretty='%h %ai %s' -s

Environment: GNU make 4.4.1-2 on Artix Linux.
Note: According to make(1p) in POSIX.1-2017, "If .SUFFIXES does not have
any prerequisites, the list of known suffixes shall be cleared.", while
"The result of setting MAKEFLAGS in the Makefile is unspecified."
Commands used to search and replace:
$ git ls-files -z -- '*Makefile*' | xargs -0 -I '{}' sh -c \
"printf '%s\n' \"\$(sed -E \
's/^(.SUFFIXES:)/\1\nMAKEFLAGS += -r\n/' '{}')\" >'{}'"
