-Og, introduced in GCC 4.8, optimizes for debugging experience. When
specified in CFLAGS, it was always overridden by -O0 or -O2. Fix this
by adding it to flags_opt_all.

Thanks, how could I overlook -Ofast when studying the GCC optimization flags for almost an hour yesterday...

looks good, one nitpick, it's curl-compilers.m4 not curl_compilers.m4

-Og, introduced in GCC 4.8, optimizes for debugging experience.
-Ofast, introduced in GCC 4.7, builds on -O3 and enables further
optimizations breaking strict standards compliance.
When specified in CFLAGS, these were always overridden by -O0 or -O2.
Fix this by adding them to flags_opt_all.
