[CMake] Fix __builtin_thread_pointer check with LTO

With LTO, gcc's IPA passes might drop the foo() function and then the test
will pass even on platforms where __builtin_thread_pointer is unavailable.

On PPC64, we get this as a result:
```
llvm/tools/llvm-exegesis/lib/BenchmarkRunner.cpp:361:61: error: ‘__builtin_thread_pointer’ is not supported on this targ
```

Just mark the function in the CMake configure test with the 'used' attribute to
avoid it being optimised out. The test then behaves correctly with -flto.

Tested with e.g. 'powerpc64le-linux-gnu-gcc -O2 -flto a.c'.
