bpftool: Pass host flags to bootstrap libbpf
bpftool builds a bootstrap libbpf with HOSTCC, but the libbpf submake can still inherit target build flags through CFLAGS. This can break cross builds when host objects are compiled with target-only options. Since HOST_CFLAGS contains warning options that are not suitable for building libbpf, use LIBBPF_BOOTSTRAP_CFLAGS with the warning options removed to build the bootstrap libbpf. Clear EXTRA_CFLAGS so target extra flags are not mixed into the host bootstrap libbpf build.
