commit da3700988d9e34e380bae21ee23d5458a7e972b4
Author: Andre Heider <a.heider at gmail.com>
AuthorDate: Thu Feb 2 21:16:21 2023 +0100

    treewide: add support for "gc-sections" in PKG_BUILD_FLAGS
    
    This reduces open coding and allows to easily add a knob to
    enable it treewide, where chosen packages can still opt-out via
    "no-gc-sections".
    
    Note: libnl, mbedtls and opkg only used the CFLAGS part without the
    LDFLAGS counterpart. That doesn't help at all if the goal is to produce
    smaller binaries. I consider that an accident, and this fixes it.
    
    Note: there are also packages using only the LDFLAGS part. I didn't
    touch those, as gc might have been disabled via CFLAGS intentionally.
