Subject: [PATCH] don't require build tools to clean

removing the output already only uses docker opportunistically cleanup after docker builds, the rest of cleanup should not require any of these

previously on a clean mac install you can install docker + `bash` and building like `make WHAT=cmd/kubectl` will work but `make clean` will fail due to lack of gnu-tar
