Android BusyBox: deprecate --libraries flag

Deprecate the --libraries flag of the
GENERATE_BINARY_R tool in favour of --library.
The new flag is multi-value and uses "," as the
pair-separator instead of ":".

The value converter still supports ":"-separated
pairs as well, but looks for "," first.

Old format:
--libraries=key1:value1,key2:value2,...

New format:
--library=key1,value1 --library=key2,value2

Motivation:
- the ":"-separator prevents using absolute paths
  on Windows

The old flag is still supported, but will be
removed after 2018-02-28 (about 6 months from
now).

Also in this commit:
- add a new method to CustomCommandLine.Builder
  to lazily construct the command line for the
  --library flag
