'KDBFLAGS' is an internal variable of kdb, it is combined by 'KDBDEBUG'
and state flags. But the user can define an environment variable named
'KDBFLAGS' too, so let's make it undefinable to avoid confusion.

One slight nit is that my personal preference is that if one half of
an "if/else" needs braces then both halves should have braces. I
don't know what Daniel and Jason's policies are, though. In any case,
not that I've ever used the KDBDEBUG functionality, but your change
seems sane. Without it if I set "KDBDEBUG" and "KDBFLAGS" and then
type "env" I see the flags listed twice, but one is real and one is
fake.

Thanks for spotting it. Refer to Documentation/process/coding-style.rst, i
will fix it in the v2.
