CFLAGS was previously hard coded to contain "-I/usr/include/slang" to work with hosts that have "/usr/include/slang/slang.h" as well as hosts that have "/usr/include/slang.h". This path can cause compile warnings like:
cc1: warning: '/usr/include/slang' doesn't exists. or cc1: warning: include location "/usr/include/slang" is unsafe for cross-compilation [-Wpoison-system-directories] Then in some cases warnings become errors if WERROR is enabled hence build errors. To fix this issue, we can use -idirafter to downgrade the priority of the default hard coded path. We can also make the slang include directory a variable, to allow the user to specify SLANG_INC and set their own include location. And add a '=' prefix to indicate better compatibility with sysroot/cross compile cases.
