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.
