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

Instead, adapt the "linux-gcc-default" job to compile with `-Og`. This
job is chosen because it uses the "ubuntu:latest" image and should thus
have a comparatively recent compiler toolchain, and because we have

To make it easier to set up the optimization level in our CI, add
