The Android Makefile generator can't specifying linking of a system library for a host binary

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The V8 build generates a host binary to generate a snapshot during it's build 
process. A recent change meant that this binary needs to link -lrt to run on 
Linux.  This caused a compile error on the AOSP webview build because the 
gyp->Android.mk translator assumes that all libraries have been built as part 
of the Android build, and doesn't provide a way to pass system libraries for 
linking.

Example build output:
http://build.chromium.org/p/tryserver.chromium/builders/android_aosp/builds/1017
4

To fix this we need to enable a way of specifying system libraries for linking 
when generating host binaries.
