minifi-cpp: specify GCC_AR and GCC_RANLIB

We encountered a minifi-cpp build error on a self-hosted image:

[snip]

When using GCC's link-time optimization with static linked libraries, we
should use gcc-ar and gcc-ranlib to create the static libraries. By
default, it will search gcc-ar and gcc-ranlib in the system. But if the
gcc-ranlib is not found, it will use ranlib instead which causes this
issue.
Specify GCC_AR and GCC_RANLIB in EXTRA_OECMAKE to make sure it can find
the correct gcc-ar/gcc-ranlib.
