tools: Drop nonsensical -O6

-O6 is very much not-a-thing. Really, this should've been dropped
entirely in 49b3cd306e60b9d8 ("tools: Set the maximum optimization level
according to the compiler being used") instead of just passing it for
not-Clang.

Just collapse it down to -O3, instead of "-O6 unless Clang, in which case
-O3".

GCC interprets > -O3 as -O3. It doesn't even interpret > -O3 as -Ofast,
which is a good thing, given -Ofast has specific (non-)requirements for
code built using it. So, this does nothing except look a bit daft.

Remove the silliness and also save a few lines in the Makefiles accordingly.
