[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 2/7] build: use meson warning levels

[Kevin Laatz <kevin.laatz@intel.com>]

From: Bruce Richardson <bruce.richardson@intel.com>

Rather than trying to manage all the cflags ourselves, we can use meson
warning levels to give the user more control. We remove the Wextra flag and
rely on meson to add it, by bumping up our default warning level.
