#8500 will change Cargo's default opt-level for build dependencies to 0. However, if a crate will also be built as a runtime dependency, that would result in Cargo building it twice, once with opt-level 0 and once with opt-level 3. We should have a way of specifying the default as having a minimum opt-level of 0, but allowing a higher opt-level. Then, Cargo could unify that and just build once, leaving build-time-only dependencies unoptimized, but optimizing dependencies shared between build-time and runtime.

2788: build: customize `opt-level` to avoid building some crates twice r=quake,driftluo a=yangby-cryptape

### Purpose

Since "Cargo PR-8500" merged, as "Cargo Issue-8502" said: "if a crate will also be built as a runtime dependency, that would result in Cargo building it twice, once with opt-level 0 and once with opt-level 3."

So, in this PR I customize the `opt-level` to the default values, to make sure each crates only be compiled once.

### Results

When `make prod`  for `v0.42.0`:
- This PR can reduce the number of compiled dependencies 9.56%  (`596 -> 544`).
- This PR can reduce the size of target directory 14.2% (`1_813_100 bytes -> 1_587_780 bytes`).
- Save total compile time.

**Notice: the size of final binary won't be chaneged.**
