CodSpeed benchmarks were building with -O2, while all firmware
targets (ESP8266, ESP32, LibreTiny) use -Os. This mismatch means
the benchmarks cannot detect inlining regressions that affect real
devices — GCC under -O2 inlines functions that -Os outlines due to
its size-conscious cost model.
Switch to -Os with -ffunction-sections/-fdata-sections for proper
dead-code stripping (needed because -Os preserves references that
-O2 optimizes away at compile time).

Remove the -Os unflag and -O2 override so benchmarks use the
platform default -Os, matching what actually runs on devices.
