[OS-BUILD PATCH] Allow building of kernel-tools standalone

[GitLab Bridge on behalf of dzickusrh <cki-gitlab@xxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Don Zickus <dzickus@xxxxxxxxxx>

For CKI and its cross-compile environment, it can not cross
compile userspace tools.  Instead we will native compiles them.

To allow this split, the kernel.spec needs to support only
building userspace stuff and not the kernel itself.

However the userspace tools need some vars defined. This
patch creates a new function and sets up those vars.

Also very useful for debugging userspace tools and skipping
the hour long kernel build times (like LTO).

To use this effectively, one would use
--without_up
--without_debug
--without_zfcpdump

Original author is Brian Masney <bmasney@xxxxxxxxxx>, which
I took from his RHEL-8 contribution.
