couchdb.shar with patch

this patch exposes the functionality already available in CouchDB itself, namely passing configuration and startup information to the erlang vm, by appending erlang flags in ERL_ZFLAGS. The ZFLAGS variant was chosen as most common usage is to override settings that couchdb already has by default -- for example, increasing number of async threads using +A 64, or enabling remsh access with `-name foo -setcookie nomnomnom`.
