[PATCH 1/2 v4] Configure script for Haiku

[Richard Zak]

This refers to the email from a few weeks ago, regarding TPM & Haiku. It seems the assertion failure isn't really about the TPM, but about disabling PIE and adding -fPIC. There's discussion on the Haiku forum[1] about the incompatibility with PIE, and this fixes the assertion failure without altering the TPM configuration variable.

Previously, the TPM option was causing an assertion error at util/async.c:669 qemu_set_current_aio_context() !my_aiocontext. I suspect it was because the TPM option may have implied PIE. This patch ensures PIE doesn't get used, but -fPIC is used instead.
