glibc: fix parallel build issue with make-4.4
We only need a one-line change in upstream fix (because we don't use "make --shuffle"). Add it as a sed for both Chapter 5 and Chapter 8. Note that the "minimal" sed would be '/MAEKFLAGS :=/s/r/ -r/'. I included an additional ')' so it won't modify "-r" again to "- -r". Tested "make" and "make check" on a x86_64 with -j8 and an arm64 with -j24. Link: https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commit;h=2d7ed98add14
