[PATCH] ash/hush: implement -d DELIM option for `read`

The POSIX standard only requires the `read` builtin to handle `-r`:
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/read.html

However, Bash introduced the option `-d <DELIM>` to override IFS for
just one invocation, and it is quite useful.

It is also super easy to implement in BusyBox' ash, so let's do that.

The motivation: This option is used by Git's test suite.
