build-sys: add CFLAGS and LDFLAGS for daemons and shared libs
This is necessary for paranoid security guys who believe that things like "-Wl,-z,relro" or "-Wl,-z,bind_now" is a way how to make the world a safer place... Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>

The SUID_* feature is currently supported for chfn, chsh,
newgrp, su, write, mount, and umount.
- Preferred compilation options for developers, when
- using gcc, are:
+ Use DAEMON_CFLAGS and DAEMON_LDFLAGS when you want to define
+ special compiler options for daemons; supported for uuidd.
- export CFLAGS="-Wmissing-parameter-type -Wsign-compare
- -Wtype-limits -Wuninitialized -Wunused-parameter
- -Wunused-but-set-parameter -fno-common"
+ Use SOLIB_CFLAGS and SOLIB_LDFLAGS when you want to define
+ special compiler options for shared libraries; supported for
+ libmount, libblkid and libuuid.
FIXME: add notes about klib and uClib.
