Expose LDFLAGS to all processes, and using it for stripping

[mattip]

This overrides values of the variables with... values of the variables? Is there a test you can add that proves this changes something?

[seiko2plus]

@mattip, that's not overriding it's just taking local variable and expose it to all child processes so it can be visible to python

[seiko2plus]

I would like to replace the default stripping to "-Wl,-strip-debug", in order to leave the default ELF sections untouched

[seiko2plus]

@mattip, I will test it manually

MacPython/numpy-wheels#87 proved that export LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS" actually does something, sorry for doubting. Here is a stack overflow that says what you said above:

If you want a process to make use of this variable, use export, and run the process from that shell.

@mattip, you have nothing to be sorry for, doubting is always part of the development process. :), I did a manual test and it seems good to me.
