[lttng-dev] Updated easy-ust Makefile

[Jérémie Galarneau]

I'd prefer we keep documentation as distribution-agnostic as possible;
that includes example Makefiles. It's not unreasonable to expect users
to install the libraries in a location that is part of their library
path.

Regards,
Jérémie

Ubuntu does not, so it needs that LDFLAGS in order for its unmodified makefile to succeed.  Since this simple addition breaks no other distro (as far as I know), why not make lttng-ust/doc/examples/easy-ust more inclusive?
