Since the "Define ..." template of comments at the top of the Makefile was started in 5bdac8b3269 ([PATCH] Improve the compilation-time settings interface, 2005-07-29) we've had a lot more flags added, including flags that come in "groups". Not having any obvious structure to the >500 line comment at the top of the Makefile has made it hard to follow. This change is almost entirely a move-only change, the two paragraphs at the start of the first two sections are new, and so are the added sections themselves, but other than that no lines are changed, only moved. We now list Makefile-only flags at the start, followed by stand-alone flags, and then cover "optional library" flags in their respective groups, followed by SHA-1 and SHA-256 flags, and finally DEVELOPER-specific flags.
