1. Remove all the special handling of variables (-d -p -P -s -S) that
were dealing with DBG (-d) LDSTATIC/NOPIE (-p), and the rest with
disabling/enabling sanitizers.
2. Use emalloc/estrdup for all the allocators instead of only some cases.
3. Add -V varspec which passes variables on the command line (as DBG
and LDSTATIC used to be passed before) instead of appending them
to the on-the-fly Makefile using -v varspec.
4. Change the distrib and rescue Makefiles to use -V instead of the removed
flags.

The motivation of this is to make variable handling consistent, less magical,
and remove the need for changing crunchgen each time we want to add disabling
an option by default.

Don't set -mmultiple or -mno-string for PowerPC, the difference is too
small to really matter and it sometimes even increases the size.

Remove terminfo.db as it's now embedded in libterminfo.

Use the rescue terminfo.db in our images instead of termcap.
