Consolidate usage of backticks for build options 

There were some build options in the README that were not
highlighted. Now all are highlighted.

### Support for multiple targets in a single library
OpenBLAS can be built for multiple targets with runtime detection of the target cpu by specifiying DYNAMIC_ARCH=1 in Makefile.rule, on the gmake command line or as -DDYNAMIC_ARCH=TRUE in cmake.
OpenBLAS can be built for multiple targets with runtime detection of the target cpu by specifiying `DYNAMIC_ARCH=1` in Makefile.rule, on the gmake command line or as `-DDYNAMIC_ARCH=TRUE` in cmake.
For **x86_64**, the list of targets this activates contains Prescott, Core2, Nehalem, Barcelona, Sandybridge, Bulldozer, Piledriver, Steamroller, Excavator, Haswell, Zen, SkylakeX. For cpu generations not included in this list, the corresponding older model is used. If you also specify DYNAMIC_OLDER=1, specific support for Penryn, Dunnington, Opteron, Opteron/SSE3, Bobcat, Atom and Nano is added. Finally there is an option DYNAMIC_LIST that allows to specify an individual list of targets to include instead of the default.

Core2, Penryn, Dunnington, Nehalem, Athlon, Opteron, Opteron_SSE3, Barcelona, Bobcat, Atom and Nano.
On **ARMV8**, it enables support for CortexA53, CortexA57, CortexA72, CortexA73, Falkor, ThunderX, ThunderX2T99, TSV110 as well as generic ARMV8 cpus.
For **POWER**, the list encompasses POWER6, POWER8 and POWER9, on **ZARCH** it comprises Z13 and Z14.

common code in the library, usually you will want to set this to the oldest model you expect to encounter.
Please note that it is not possible to combine support for different architectures, so no combined 32 and 64 bit or x86_64 and arm64 in the same library.
