[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3] configure: properly check if -lrt and -lm is needed

[Natanael Copa]

Fixes build against uClibc.

uClibc provides 2 versions of clock_gettime(), one with realtime
support and one without (this is so you can avoid linking in -lrt
unless actually needed). This means that the clock_gettime() don't
need -lrt. We still need it for timer_create() so we check for this
function in addition.

We also need check if -lm is needed for isnan().

Both -lm and -lrt are needed for libs_qga.

Changes v2->v3:
- Check if -lpthread is needed with static -lrt
