Add the ability in the Makefile to pass from the environment values for CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS in order to have a proper hardened build. Refer to https://wiki.debian.org/Hardening for details.
/run is a new cross-distribution location for the storage of transient state files, i.e. files containing run-time information that may or may not need to be written early in the boot process and which does not require preserving across reboots. A result of that change is that udev no longer uses /dev/ to store its runtime state file, i.e. the /dev/.udev/ directory, /dev/.udevdb and /dev/.udev.tdb are gone and udev uses /run/udev/ now.

These are the last three patches that have existed in the Debian
packaging for many years but never made it upstream. In case I had
already forwarded them, I've already completely forgotten about that.
If you think they deserve to be upstreamed, feel free to pick them or
just a subset. In case of rejections, let me know. I'll mark them
accordingly here, then.
