[BUG]

[qvoid]

Description

Can not build a release version with cmake and "CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE" already set to "Release"

When doing a cross compile using ndk-22 with cmake. And specify CMAK_BUILD_TYPE by doing this:

cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE="<path-to-android.toolchain.cmake>" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release 
...

I found the size of libraries and generated didn't get smaller comparing to "DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug"

After some research, I found the root cause is that -g flags is appended to "ANDROID_COMPILER_FLAGS" by default.
Removing this will successfully build a release version library.

So, I am wondering why the -g flags is set? How can I remove it without modifying "android.toolchain.cmake" under "/build/cmake" ?

Besides, this happens to ndk 16 too.
