Makefile:am: Improve formatting and order of CFLAGS and LIBS
Place osmocom libraries in proper dependency order. It seems in general the linker searches from left to right, and notes unresolved symbols as it goes. So libs should be placed so that the library that needs symbols must be first, then the library that resolves the symbol. This is actually more important for static libraries than shared libraries, see: https://praveenv253.github.io/logs/2014/03/15/log-message-1.html https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45135/why-does-the-order-in-which-librar...
Some distros like debian and ubuntu started passing -Wl,--as-needed by default, which then require the object files to be passed before the libraries. According to https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Quality_Assurance/As-needed "Importance of linking order" this is not much of a problem with autoamke since we properly use LDADD instead of LDFLAGS.

The problem is actually those places where we pass .o objects in LDADD. There, we need to put the .o files first, and then the libraries in the order mentioned above. Nevertheless, it's good to always follow the same order always everywhere to avoid potential problems though.
