configure: check if -latomic is needed for __atomic_*
On some platforms, gcc generates library calls when __atomic_* functions
are used, but does not link the required library (libatomic) automatically
(supposedly to allow the app to use some other atomics implementation?).
Detect this at configure time and add the library when needed. Tested
on armel (library was added) and on x86_64 (was not, as expected).
Some documentation on this is provided in GCC wiki:
https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Atomic/GCCMM
Fixes: 8915f0c0 "util: use GCC atomic intrinsics with explicit memory model"
