configure: Check whether makecontext() is a glibc stub function
On some systems (notably ARM Linux) glibc provides implementations of makecontext(), getcontext() and friends which are stubs which always return failure. Make the configure test for makecontext() also check for the presence of the __stub_makecontext macro which indicates the presence of these stubs, so we can avoid trying to use them and fall back to a different coroutine implementation instead.
