Do not pass -DNDEBUG to Python compilations in development mode
The Python CFLAGS include -DNDEBUG. This was apparently done
intentionally -- setting the flags is done manually because, according
to a comment, python-config passes too many things to the compiler
(which is true).
Per PR python/20445, this patch changes configure so that -DNDEBUG is
only used by release builds. This probably doesn't have very much
effect in practice, but I did see that some Python headers use assert,
so perhaps it will give some safety.
Tested by rebuilding and re-running gdb.python/*.exp on x86-64 Fedora 28.
