configure: Fix -lm test, so that tools can be compiled on hosts that require -lm

The existing test whether "-lm" needs to be included or not is
insufficient as it reports false negative on Fedora20/ppc64.
This happens because sin(0.0) is a constant value which compiler
can safely throw away and therefore there is no need to add "-lm".
As the result, qemu-nbd/qemu-io/qemu-img tools cannot compile.

This adds a global variable and uses it in the test to prevent
from optimization.

 now useless -lm addition in Makefile.target. - Paolo]
