This patch adds -iframework so that one can add system frameworks

Ok?
This is not OK for 4.2. It's a new feature.
It fills an important for some gap in functionality of the original -
F option. I was hoping that no one would need it, that hope has been
dashed. Since it is, presently, a darwin only option, and since you
said you'd entertain more latitude with port only code, I thought I'd
try. I have a need for this in 4.2, though I can put this into my
4.2 branch.
If I used the port files directly instead of c.opt to support this
option, would it make it more palatable for 4.2? -F has a stronger
reason to be in c.opt, -iframework does not.
Doesn't this make us silently ignore -iframework on non-Darwin
platforms?
Yes, this matches what we do with -F, though, we could make it (and -
F) error out.
