Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: support byacc as alternative YACC to bison

Switches to a more portable set of flags for generating the same file
names instead of the bison-specific --defines, uses the more portable -V
instead of --version, and explicitly defines YYSTYPE in lex.l, which
bison implicitly defines if not present but byacc does not.
