link to shared llvm

I am providing an Ubuntu PPA to enable some mesa features (e.g. llvm support)
not available in the Ubuntu version:
https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/graphics-drivers/

Mesa defaults to use static llvm libraries and this creates huge packages
(+10MB for every file using it). I am using the attached patch to link to
shared llvm library. Maybe it could be used when specifying a configure flag or
be the default if the availability of the shared llvm is detected.
