[PATCH] configure: add a --disable-werror option


Building with -Werror makes a lot of sense for development, but not a lot
for distro deployments.  Changes in default flag settings, versions of the
compiler or C library, or 3rd party libraries can easily trigger harmless
warnings that are a waste of time to track down.  Especially when elfutils
itself enables many extra -W flags.  So add a configure flag for distros
to utilize when building.
