Enable LTO

For a large internal parser the changes in this PR lead to speedups of up to 8-10% when interfaced with Zeek. I am not 100% certain that this is not due to the -flto flags on our object libraries leaking into the zeek binary and making things the parsers interact with faster though.

In general such LTO builds seem to take (much) longer to link.

Have you tried parallelizing the linking (to make it finish faster)?
