[PATCH v3 4/8] var: format variable structure with C99 initializers

From

From: "brian m. carlson" <bk2204@github.com>

Right now, we have only two items in our variable struct. However, in the future, we're going to add two more items. To help keep our diffs nice and tidy and make this structure easier to read, switch to use C99-style initializers for our data.
