build: Update the makefiles for the benefit of cross-compilation

Split AR_RC into AR and ARFLAGS. The variables AR and ARFLAGS are
de-facto standards (like CC and CFLAGS, LD and LDFLAGS, etc.) that
may be overridden when running make. Moreover, configuring CC, LD,
AR, etc., to point to a cross-platform compiler, linker, librarian,
etc., is a de-facto standard practice as well.

Also remove the MKDIR_P variable definitions from all makefiles.
They've been leftovers from the removal of the "install*" targets.
