Subject: [PATCH 2/6] tools build: fix feature detection redefinion of build flags

This change is a follow up of https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/2/2/16

The patch above avoided redefining CC, CXX and PKG_CONFIG in feature
detection. The patch was not merged due to a unsolved concern with
the -MD flag.

Later, commit c8c188679ccf ("tools build: Use the same CC for feature
  detection and actual build")
did the change for CC and CXX but not PKG_CONFIG.

This patch makes PKG_CONFIG consistent with CC and CXX and moves
the -MD to CFLAGS, as suggested by Jiri in the thread above.
