[PATCH v3 0/4] ci: detect more warnings via `-Og`

From: Patrick Steinhardt <hidden>
Date: 2024-06-07 06:46:29

Hi,

this is the third version of this patch series that adapts one of our CI
jobs to compile with `-Og` for improved coverage of warnings.

Changes compared to v2:

  - Typo fixes for commit messages.

  - Replaced the `O` variable with `CFLAGS_APPEND`. If that isn't
    palatable to folks then I'll drop this altogether and will inline it
    into the CI script, duplicating the default CFLAGS there.

  - Start compiling with V=1 so that the change can actually be seen. It
    also shouldn't clutter the job output too much given that the build
    is in a collapsible section on both GitHub and GitLab.

Patrick
