fix: Pass Velox CMake build type to Folly#2015
Merged

Conversation
Currently Velox never passes CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE into Folly's own configure
step, while cmake_install only forwards arbitrary caller flags, so Folly
was not built in release mode when Velox is built in release mode. This
commit adds -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="${CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE}" to FOLLY_FLAGS, so
a release Velox dependency setup now builds release Folly on macOS and
Linux.

@yingsu00 Thanks! Should this change also be delivered into the upstream velox?

Not really. We want to use upstream Velox as a baseline so I won't send PRs to FB upstream. |

The improvements is presumably from the Folly hash function speed up in release build.
