This PR comes in two parts:

  1. Fix Makefile, generator and valadoc-example-tester to use VALAC everywhere.
  2. Allow VALAC to be set in the environment. This makes it easy to use a different valac to test. Document in README.md that it must use a different API version from other installed versions.

@ricotz said about this "note the vala version retrieval and library usage". I had a look at valadoc-example-tester.vala, and I can't see what this refers to, sorry!

@ricotz, ping? If I recall correctly, you weren't happy with the second commit, but the first seemed uncontroversial? If that's so, I can remove the second commit from this PR.
