ENH: enabled extra_link_args in OpenBLAS segment

The extra_link_args is sadly not intrinsically used
for many parts of the system_info code.

This commit adds the linking properties stored
when using extra_link_args in the openblas section
to bypass any difficulties in the usage of OpenBLAS.

This is especially helpful when linking against external
LAPACK libraries which requires -lgfortran and possibly
-lm for correct linking.
