Summary
-------

This patch adds variable substitution to makeobj's $OBJ_SUBDIR and $OBJ_REPLACEMENT, allowing one to maintain multiple builddirs within the same project directory. This is especially useful for keeping builddirs for different branches in 1 git repo.

For example, one could set OBJ_SUBDIR=build-%GITBRANCH% and then have build-branch1; build-branch2... within the same git repo.

Also, I added variables for keeping builddirs of different platforms inside the same project dir.
So you could have have build-master-gcc; build-master-icc; build-branch-gcc; build-branch-icc all in the same project.

We could always add more variables as needed, but for now I only have these:
 %BRANCH% with the name of the Git or SVN branch you are in (as applicable)
 %GITBRANCH% with the name of the Git branch you are in (empty if not in a Git branch)
 %SVNBRANCH% with the name of the SVN branch you are in (empty if not in an SVN branch)
 %CC% with the basename of your C compiler set in $CC (gcc if empty)
 %CXX% with the basename of your C++ compiler set in $CXX (g++ if empty)
 %ARCH% with the machine architecture (i.e. 'uname -m')
 %OS% with the operating system name (i.e. 'uname -o'), in lower-case without "GNU"
