This is useful to:

* give dry commands on the README that don't change when we refactor directory structure
* create simple bash scripts that call use common.py variables

For example, to get the Buildroot output directory for an ARM build, use:

....
./%(prog)s -a arm buildroot_build_dir
....

List all available variables:

....
./%(prog)s
....
....
