Document the -d-flags and -dFfilename.%d options.
Mention MAKEFLAGS at the top, reword to make it clear that makefile and
Makefile are only used if no -f makefile is given.

of trying to de-jobify the make.
You can now put .NOTPARALLEL in a submake of a recursive make (where it is
using a job-token pipe from the outer make and have it only run a single job.
You can also specify .NOTPARRALEL in the root makefile of a large recursive
make and have the submakes run multiple commands.
Add some diagnostics printfs (enabled with -dp) to the parser.
to document the behaviour that is currently in use (the "./obj" and
"/usr/obj/`pwd`" behaviour).
Hopefully the existing .OBJDIR behaviour is clearer now.
./obj.${MACHINE}
./obj
/usr/obj/${PWD}
The rules for the default .OBJDIR setting are now simplified to
(and documented as) trying the chdir to the following
(if the appropriate variable is defined):
${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}${.CURDIR}
${MAKEOBJDIR}
${.CURDIR}
.OBJDIR can be overridden in the makefile.
<bsd.obj.mk> uses this to provide the "culled" .OBJDIR semantics
for NetBSD's /usr/src builds.
MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX & MAKEOBJDIR still can only be provided
in the environment or on make(1)'s command line.
Per discussion on tech-toolchain.
This should reduce a lot of lossage people have experienced over
the years with various .OBJDIR setups.
Its not posix compliant and serves very little purpose.
With this change compat and jobs modes are consistent wrt how
they treat each line of a script.
Add support for the '+' command line prefix as required by posix.
Lines prefixed with '+' are executed even when -n is given.
[Actually posix says they should also be done for -q and -t]

- new dir.c function: Dir_FindHereOrAbove:
Search for a path in the current directory and then all the directories
above it in turn until the path is found or we reach the root ("/").
- add hooks to use it in main.c for -m and syspath (compiled in
_PATH_DEFSYSPATH and $MAKESYSPATH).
- updated man page
Improve description of variable modifiers.
In the variable list, be more specific referring to "environment variables"
rather than just relying upon the formatting difference between .Ev and .Va.
In the "modifier description" list, show each modifier with the leading `:'.
Rationale: it's hard to search for modifiers without it, and we already do
the same thing in the -options and .makecommands lists. I now find it much
easier to find the description for a modifier in the man page.
Also :tW and a W flag to :C and :S to allow treating value as a single word.
Add unit tests for the above, and fix some corner cases.
