@zturner, we can absolutely add flags into the substitutions. Other projects do that too.

We could add parallels. How about instead of trying to match the existing model though we go with something more like `LLDB_TEST_C_COMPILER` and `LLDB_TEST_CXX_COMPILER` as values that replace the `%cc` and `%cxx` substitutions respectively?
