    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].
