package/qt5/qt5base: build with correct optimization

Qt5 has predefined optimization flags depending if you're building for
size, for debug etc. These flags are defined in
mkspecs/common/gcc-base.conf:

QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE      = -O2
QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE_FULL = -O3
QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE_DEBUG = -Og
QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE_SIZE = -Os

Then, in common/features/default_post.prf, they add those flags to
QMAKE_CFLAGS_RELEASE/QMAKE_CXXFLAGS_RELEASE depending on various build
options (optimize_size, optimize_full, optimize_debug):

optimize_size {
    !isEmpty(QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE):!isEmpty(QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE_SIZE)  {
        QMAKE_CFLAGS_RELEASE -= $$QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE
        QMAKE_CXXFLAGS_RELEASE -= $$QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE
        QMAKE_CFLAGS_RELEASE += $$QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE_SIZE
        QMAKE_CXXFLAGS_RELEASE += $$QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE_SIZE
    }
} else: optimize_full {
    !isEmpty(QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE):!isEmpty(QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE_FULL)  {
        QMAKE_CFLAGS_RELEASE -= $$QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE
        QMAKE_CXXFLAGS_RELEASE -= $$QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE
        QMAKE_CFLAGS_RELEASE += $$QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE_FULL
        QMAKE_CXXFLAGS_RELEASE += $$QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE_FULL
    }
}

Since this default_post.prf is included *after* our qmake.conf file,
these flags override our optimizations flags, which is not good.

However, our qmake.conf file is included *after* gcc-base.conf, so we
can simply reset those variables to have the empty value, and our
optimization flags will be used.

[Thomas: completely change the approach, by simply resetting the
QMAKE_CFLAGS_OPTIMIZE_* variables in qmake.conf]
