selftests/bpf: Allow building with extra flags
In order to specify extra compilation or linking flags to BPF selftests, it is possible to set EXTRA_CFLAGS and EXTRA_LDFLAGS from the command line. The problem is that they are not propagated to sub-make calls (runqslower, bpftool, libbpf) and in the better case are not applied, in the worse case cause the entire build fail. Propagate EXTRA_CFLAGS and EXTRA_LDFLAGS to the sub-makes. This, for instance, allows to build selftests as PIE with $ make EXTRA_CFLAGS='-fPIE' EXTRA_LDFLAGS='-pie' Without this change, the command would fail because libbpf.a would not be built with -fPIE and other PIE binaries would not link against it. The only problem is that we have to explicitly provide empty EXTRA_CFLAGS='' and EXTRA_LDFLAGS='' to the builds of kernel modules as we don't want to build modules with flags used for userspace (the above example would fail as kernel doesn't support PIE).
