Subject: [PATCH v2] kbuild: Add environment variables for userprogs flags

Allow additional arguments be passed to userprogs compilation.
Reproducible clang builds need to provide a sysroot and gcc path to
ensure same toolchain is used across hosts. KCFLAGS is not currently
used for any user programs compilation, so add new USERCFLAGS and
USERLDFLAGS which serves similar purpose as HOSTCFLAGS/HOSTLDFLAGS.

Specifically, I'm trying to force CC_CAN_LINK to consistently fail in
an environment where a user sysroot is not specifically available.
Currently, Clang might automatically detect GCC installation on hosts
which have it installed to a default location in /. With addition of
these environment variables, you can specify flags such as:

$ make USERCFLAGS=--sysroot=/dev/null USERLDFLAGS=-Wl,--sysroot=/dev/null

to force sysroot detection to fail.
