Move the -lm flag from CFLAGS to a new LDLIBS variable and place it at the end of the linker command. This ensures libm is properly linked on Linux systems. The linker processes arguments left-to-right, so library flags must come after source files that reference their symbols. Previously, -lm appeared before the source file, causing "undefined symbol: sqrtf" errors on some Linux distributions. Cherry-picked from upstream PR asg017#252 Co-Authored-By: wardviaene <ward.viaene@gmail.com>
