[lttng-dev] [PATCH 1/1] Fix: disable liblttng-ust-dl if dlinfo is not available in C library

According to uClibc commit [1], dlinfo is not available in recent uClibc (>0.9.33),
but available in older version of uClibc (<=0.9.33) whith a different prototype than glibc.

dlinfo used by liblttng-ust-dl require RTLD_DI_LINKMAP that is not available in uClibc.

To be able to use LTTng UST with uClibc, we need to disable
the Dynamic Linker Tracing functionality [2] if RTLD_DI_LINKMAP is not detected.
