Update --rebuild-if-* flags to rebuild when build dependencies are changed.
Right now, the --rebuild-if-* flags only rebuild packages that are used at
both run-time and build-time. This doesn't help for packages that are used
only at build-time (for example, static libaries).
Rebuilding packages whenever a build-time dependency is changed is easier to
understand and explain, and it handles all cases correctly.
BUG=chromium-os:15517
TEST=Run emerge test suite.
