LTO patch

Hello,
    I've been testing GCC 4.9 for a virtual gentoo machine and I noticed that
you us flatten attribute in source code. In case of src/sna/sna_glyphs.c
flatten functions, inliner inlines about 3.3M functions and crashes because of
no free memory (I have 8GB memory).

Please notice that LTO has ability to optimize whole program. As a result, it
sees almost all function bodies and that leads to enormous inlining.

Suggested patch removes these flatten attributes for selected functions.

Thank you,
MArtin</pre>
