Subject: [PATCH] Adding pic_flag property to compilers (#2375)

Different compilers have different flags for PIC (position-independent
code). This patch provides a common ground to accessing it inside specs.

See discussions in #508 and #2373. This patch does not address the issue
of mixed compilers as mentioned in #508.
