Andre Guedes 8a0bc49433 x86: Improve debugging experience
This patch appends some gcc options to CFLAGS when building the default
image in order to improve the debugging experience on GDB.

We use the '-ggdb' option which produces debugging information used by
GDB (including GDB extensions) with level 3 which includes preprocessor
macros information. We also use '-Og' which enables optimizations that
do not interfere with debugging. According to gcc manpage, it should be
the optimization level of choice for the standard edit-compile-debug
cycle, offering a reasonable level of optimization while maintaining
fast compilation and a good debugging experience.

Also, this patch removes the '-g' option from the default CFLAGS because
there is no point in using it when BUILD_RELEASE=1.

As expected, the overall ELF image increases (due to -ggdb3 option) while
the .text section is reduced (due to -Og). For the sake of comparison,
below follows the output of 'size'.

Before patch:
$ size -A hello-world.galileo

The Contiki Operating System

Build Status

Contiki is an open source operating system that runs on tiny low-power microcontrollers and makes it possible to develop applications that make efficient use of the hardware while providing standardized low-power wireless communication for a range of hardware platforms.

Contiki is used in numerous commercial and non-commercial systems, such as city sound monitoring, street lights, networked electrical power meters, industrial monitoring, radiation monitoring, construction site monitoring, alarm systems, remote house monitoring, and so on.
