Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#23152: build: add `--enable-lto` configuration option

68e5aafde3e87c16da95410a0474f38f589afb36 build: add `--enable-lto` configuration option (fanquake)

Pull request description:

  It's been 5 years since using LTO was first suggested for use when building Bitcoin Core, and it's time to revisit it again. Compilers, and their LTO implementations, have matured, and Bitcoin Core has come a long way in terms of pruning dependencies which may have proved troublesome (i.e Boost previously had issues when using LTO). We'll have even less Boost code after moving to `std::filesystem` (#20744).

  Experimenting with LTO came up on IRC last night:
  > sipa: jamesob: i'm interested in knowing whether "-flto" and/or "-fdata-sections -ffunction-sections -Wl,--gc-sections" are possible/beneficial with our current compiler suite; what would be a good way to have your test infrastructure benchmark things?

  So this PR just adds the bare minimum to make it easier to configure, compile and perform some bench-marking using `-flto`. This PR doesn't do anything depends wise, however if we decide this is what we want to do, I'll expand the changes here.

  I had previously had a PR open (#18605) to perform link time garbage collection (`-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections` & `-Wl,--gc-sections`), however moving straight to using LTO would be preferable.

  Note that our minimum required set of compilers, GCC 8.1 and Clang 7, all support the `-flto` option.

  Related #18579.
  Previous discussion: #10616, #14277.
  Previous related PRs: #10800 (`-flto`), #16791 (ThinLTO).
