Subject: [PATCH v3 bpf-next 11/14] libbpf: makefile: add C/CXX/LDFLAGS to libbpf.so and test_libpf targets

In case of LDFLAGS and EXTRA_CC/CXX flags there is no way to pass them
correctly to build command, for instance when --sysroot is used or
external libraries are used, like -lelf, wich can be absent in
toolchain. This can be used for samples/bpf cross-compiling allowing
to get elf lib from sysroot.

Instead of doing ifdef EXTRA_CXXFLAGS bit above, you can just include
both $(CXXFLAGS) and $(EXTRA_CXXFLAGS), which will do the right thing
(and is actually recommended my make documentation way to do this).

But actually, there is no need to use C++ compiler here,
test_libbpf.cpp can just be plain C. Do you mind renaming it to .c and
using C compiler instead?

It's good practice to follow existent style, I've done similar way as for
CFLAGS + EXTRACFLAGS here, didn't want to verify it can impact on
smth else. And my goal is not to correct everything but embed my
functionality, series tool large w/o it.

Seems like, will try in next v.

Alright, we'll have to eventually clean up this Makefile. What we do
with EXTRA_CFLAGS is not exactly correct, as in this Makefile
EXTRA_CFLAGS are overriding CFLAGS, instead of extending them, which
doesn't seem correct to me. BTW, bpftool does += instead of :=. All
this is avoided by just keeping CFLAGS and EXTRA_CFLAGS separate and
specifying both of them in $(CC)/$(CLANG) invocations. But feel free
to ignore this for now.
