configure: added --enable-build-type=TYPE

Useful to quickly define settings combination. Individual settings still
could be overridden by individual parameters.

+# SYNOPSIS
+#
+#   MHD_CHECK_ADD_CC_LDFLAGS([FLAGS-TO-TEST], [VARIABLE-TO-EXTEND])
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+#
+#   This macro checks whether the specific compiler flags are supported.
+#   The FLAGS-TO-TEST parameter is whitespace-separated flagto to test.
+#   The flags are tested one-by-one, all supported flags are added to the
+#   VARIABLE-TO-EXTEND.
+#   Every flag check is performing by appending one flag to the value of
+#   VARIABLE-TO-EXTEND (LDFLAGS if not specified), then prepending result to
+#   LDFLAGS (unless VARIABLE-TO-EXTEND is LDFLAGS), and then performing compile
+#   and link test. If test succeed without warnings, then the flag is added to
+#   VARIABLE-TO-EXTEND. Otherwise, if compile and link without test flag cannot
+#   be done without any warning, the flag is considered to be unsuppoted.
+#
+#   Example usage:
+#
+#     MHD_CHECK_ADD_CC_LDFLAGS([-W,--strip-all -Wl,--fatal-warnings],
+#                              [additional_LDFLAGS])
