Import build flags from environment (a la Chisel2). #245

I think this looks ok, though I don't have the machinery to test this out.
Could there be a simple test, for instance, something that sets an env var that
calls a script in the test suite that shows arguments are picked up can run?
One minor quibble about a new line.
I was also wondering if there should be some output when environment variables are
overriding default values. Sometimes left-over env vars floating around can cause
weird behavior and it's difficult to know what's causing it.

Good catch. Will fix.

If there's some urgency, maybe my comments should be turned into issues for testers2 so that |

I think this does need to be discussed. I like the idea of issuing some kind of notification when environment variables are used. |

CC,CXX,CCFLAGS,CXXFLAGS,CPPFLAGS,LDFLAGSand incorporate them in the flags used to build C++ simulations.Although similar effects can be achieved via the
--more-vcs-flags, and--more-vcs-c-flagscommand line options, it's difficult to make these available to the internal ScalaTest suites.
