====================
tools build: bpf: Append EXTRA_CFLAGS and HOST_EXTRACFLAGS

Append EXTRA_CFLAGS and HOST_EXTRACFLAGS to the BPF build.

This mitigates an issue introduced in GCC 15, where a {0} initializer
does not guarantee zeroing the entire union [1].

The common changes under tools to support EXTRA_CFLAGS and
HOST_EXTRACFLAGS are sent separately [2].  As suggested, BPF patches
would be picked up via the bpf tree, so this series only includes BPF
related changes.

Verification on bpf-ci (with tools changes [2]:
