 Log Message:
 Switch from -std=gnu99 to -std=gnu11 by default.
 
 This is needed for newer language syntax like u"foo" for UTF-16
 string literals in UEFI.
 
 As proposed on tech-kern:
 
 https://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-kern/2025/01/05/msg029919.html
 
 Some commentators requested -std=c11 instead of -std=gnu11, but that
 requires additional work -- some of it is a matter of providing asm
 and typeof as aliases for __asm__ and __typeof__, but there's other
 issues that need to be resolved too like PR toolchain/58969: use of
 alloca is warning, not error, with -std=c11.  This is a smaller
 incremental change.
