Running `make clean` without Icarus installed fails

See original GitHub issue

For some reason the clean target depends on a simulator being set and if you invoke make clean and don’t have icarus installed (SIM defaults to icarus) you get:

> make clean
.../site-packages/cocotb/share/makefiles/simulators/Makefile.icarus:51: *** "Unable to locate command >iverilog<".  Stop.

I just got annoyed by the same issue when repeatedly switching between simulators. We should be able to provide a make clean which calls a clean-like target on all available simulators.

An easy implementation is probably using recursive Makefile calls, but there might be room for a better implementation.

@Shangkorong your issue is unrelated to the feature request here. Your problem is a non-working installation of Icarus Verilog, or alternatively you need to specify SIM=... to use another simulator. The cocotb gitter channel is at https://gitter.im/cocotb/Lobby, please ask around there or file a new issue – but let’s keep this issue focused on the actual feature request.
