Add the --enable-pgo-build[=lto] configure option. When binutils+gdb
is not built together with GCC, --enable-pgo-build enables the PGO build:
1. First build with -fprofile-generate.
2. Use "make maybe-check-*" to generate profiling data and pass -i to make
to ignore errors when generating profiling data.
3. Use "make clean" to remove the previous build.
4. Rebuild with -fprofile-use.
Tested PGO/LTO builds for GDB and binutils with GCC 11 on Fedora 33.
Changes from V2:
1. Pass PGO_BUILD_TRAINING=yes for PGO build training.
2. Set TESTS to gdb.dwarf2/*.exp for GDB PGO build training.
3. gnulib: Support variables from the top level Makefile.
Changes from V1:
1. Pass -ffat-lto-objects together with -flto=jobserver.
2. Pass -i to make to ignore "make check" errors in PGO training runs.
