[PATCH v2] lib/meson.build: allow build IGT with link time optimization

[Andrzej Hajda <andrzej.hajda@intel.com>]

Some distributions use -flto gcc flag to build IGT. With this flag
enabled variables declared with section attribute do not appear in
correct section in .o files. Since iga64 assembly helper script relies
on it we need to use -ffat-lto-objects in case of files containing
iga64 assembly. According to documentation this option is effective
only in case lto is in use, so it should not affect non-lto builds.

This patch 'fixes' building IGT with link-time-optimization. I am not
sure it is or should be supported by IGT, but build scripts can be
modified to allow it for testing.
Grepping internet shows at least Gentoo and Arch Linux builds IGT with
LTO, so I guess it is working for them.
