Makefile: Globally enable VLA warning

Browse source 
Now that Variable Length Arrays (VLAs) have been entirely removed[1]
from the kernel, enable the VLA warning globally. The only exceptions
to this are the KASan an UBSan tests which are explicitly checking that
VLAs trigger their respective tests.
