[PATCH][next] Makefile: Enable -Wstringop-overflow globally

From: Gustavo A. R. Silva
Date: Wed Nov 15 2023 - 22:27:15 EST


It seems that we have finished addressing all the remaining
issues regarding compiler option -Wstringop-overflow. So, we
are now in good shape to enable this compiler option globally.
