configure.ac: Add a --disable-lto configure option
Link-Time Optimization seems to be stable enough with gcc 4.8 and 4.9, but has proven to be an issue in the past for many cairo users (webkit, efl, ubuntu, opensuse, gentoo, arch...) who carry patches to disable it. Gentoo's patch[1] adds a --disable-lto option to leave it enabled by default but give users the ability to work around lto related build problems (c.f. fdo #77060). Patch appears to have been authored by Alexandre Rostovtsev[2]. 1: sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/x11-libs/cairo/files/cairo-1.12.16-lto-optional.patch 2: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=509552 Fixes: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60852 Signed-off-by: Bryce Harrington <b.harrington@samsung.com> Reviewed-by: Uli Schlachter <psychon@znc.in>
