description:
make(1): remove ineffective malloc_options variable

According to jemalloc(3), the variable must be called _malloc_options,
with a leading underscore, to have an effect.

Renaming the variable indeed enables the option.  There's not much point
having this variable around though, since it neither detects a trivial
double-free nor freeing an invalid pointer in the following code
snippet:

        char *asdf = bmake_malloc(10);
        fprintf(stderr, "%c\n", *asdf);
        free(asdf + 8);
        free(asdf);
        free(asdf);
        exit(1);

Instead, it just crashes with a segmentation fault.
