Modify the .code16 macro so that the 16-bit code segment can get a
chance to be correctly merged with other (possibly 32-bit) code
segments, without keeping generating multiple .text segments with
different attributes and generating the corresponding LNK4078 warning.
This fixes the warning when compiling NTOSKRNL on MSVC:
"v86.S.obj : warning LNK4078: multiple '.text' sections found with different attributes (C0520040)".
- Always use string pooling when building: this helps reducing the
size of the binaries due to string redundancy coming from the usage
of __FILE__ / __RELFILE__ in the debugging helper macros. Note also
that GCC builds use string pooling by default.
- Use suitable add_compile_flags() command.
- Add some explanative comments for some settings.
Some numbers (obtained with my local builds):
