[RESEND PATCH v2 1/2] Kbuild: lto: add CONFIG_MAKE_VERSION

[Lecopzer Chen]

To check the GNU make version. Used by the LTO Kconfig.

LTO with MODVERSIONS will fail in generating correct CRC because
the makefile rule doesn't work for make with version 3.8X.[1]

Thus we need to check make version during selecting on LTO Kconfig.
Add CONFIG_MAKE_VERSION which means MAKE_VERSION in canonical digits
for arithmetic comparisons.
