We add EXTRA_CFLAGS to the common CFLAGS of top-level Makefile

Nit, wrap closer to 75 chars.

which will allow users to pass additional compile-time flags such as "-static".

In case there's any hesitation in applying this (Paolo asked if this was just for debugging in v1), being able to pass "-static" is helpful for our environment as our test systems have a funky and minimal configuration (no gcc, and the interpreter is in a weird location). Running selftests either requires building them with -static or creating a symbolic link for /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2. It's generally easier to just tell people to compile with -static.
