[Mesa-stable] [PATCH 1/4] configure.ac: add -pthread to PTHREAD_LIBS

As described inline - follow what's written in the manual and what works
for all platforms that Mesa supports.

We want to untangle things leaving only -pthread, yet that has a
potential of causing regressions. Thus we'll do it as a follow-up patch.

As a nice side-effect this resolves issues, where the system lacks
libpthread.so, yet the linker does not warn about it and we and up with
unresolved symbols.

+dnl According to the manual when using pthreads, one should add -pthread to
+dnl both compile and link-time arguments.

 dnl pthread-stubs is mandatory on BSD platforms, due to the nature of the
 dnl project. Even then there's a notable issue as described in the project README
