Pau Espin	afce89dac1	configure: Allow disabling workaround for TLS bug in old ARM gcc versions ... Some toolchains (such as sysmobts 201705 one) containing the TLS bug on old ARM gcc versions (<7.3.0) also crash if the initial workaround found is aplied (CFLAGS="-mtls-dialect=gnu2"). In that scenario, let's provide a way to disable the workaround (to avoid "ld" crashing) and warn the user about requirement to build with -O0 to avoid runtime crashes.

Pau Espin	e188b8cd98	configure: Autodetect TLS bug on ARM with old gcc and apply workaround ... Check if compiler being used contains the bug. GCC 7.3.0 is the oldest version containing the fix, and version 6.3.0 is known to contain the bug. Bug is only known to appear so far only on ARM32. If the bug is present, gcc will generate a wrong binary which wil lend up segfaulting when accessing TLS (__thread) variables under certain conditions.
