Support extra host compiler flags.
Allow the user to configure extra flags to pass to the host compiler
at build time. Applies to both C and C++.
Useful on Ubuntu to turn off the stack protector and fortify defaults
so the program stands a better chance of running on other distros.

This is typically a case where "category/component" does not apply... :-/
Usually, I use something like:

(see below) Add:
Those flags are passed after all the internally-computed
flags, so will override them.

I'd rather like that the user-specified flags are passed last, so they have
a chance to override the automatically-computed flags.
Otherwise, good.

Applied as #99de89e9acba, but adding the custom flags at the end. Thank you!
