    driver: fix environ corruption after putenv() [PR106624]

    The bug appeared afte r13-2010-g1270ccda70ca09 "Factor out
    jobserver_active_p" slightly changed `putenv()` use from allocating
    to non-allocating:

        -xputenv (concat ("MAKEFLAGS=", dup, NULL));
        +xputenv (jinfo.skipped_makeflags.c_str ());

    `xputenv()` (and `putenv()`) don't copy strings and only store the
    pointer in the `environ` global table. As a result `environ` got
    corrupted as soon as `jinfo.skipped_makeflags` store got deallocated.

    This started causing bootstrap crashes in `execv()` calls:

        xgcc: fatal error: cannot execute '/build/build/./prev-gcc/collect2':
execv: Bad address

    The change restores memory allocation for `xputenv()` argument.
