[lib] Move global options to their proper place.
Recent commits introduced global flags, but these should be module-specific so relocating. Global flags are deprecated, and for 8.9 `Lib.Flags` will be reduced to the truly global stuff.

(** Global options of the system. *)
+(** WARNING: don't add new entries to this file!
+
+ This file is own its way to deprecation in favor of a purely
+ functional state, but meanwhile it will contain options that are
+ truly global to the system such as [compat] or [debug]
+
+ If you are thinking about adding a global flag, well, just
+ don't. First of all, options make testins exponentially more
+ expensive, due to the growth of flag combinations. So please make
+ some effort in order for your idea to work in a configuration-free
+ manner.
+
+ If you absolutely must pass an option to your new system, then do
+ so as a functional argument so flags are exposed to unit
+ testing. Then, register such parameters with the proper
+ state-handling mechanism of the top-level subsystem of Coq.
+
+ *)
