[PATCH 21.11] build: detect backtrace availability

[Kevin Traynor]

From: Thomas Monjalon <thomas at monjalon.net>

[ upstream commit bc1db4f45af35c87e7d97db7a24d479674aa8a43 ]

Backtrace dump is available:
	- always on Windows
	- on Linux/BSD if execinfo.h is available (not anymore on Alpine)

The flag RTE_BACKTRACE was set unconditionally in rte_config.h.
It is now set only if the feature is available.

Note: Alpine Linux has decided to remove libexecinfo support,
so this change will allow to compile DPDK on recent Alpine Linux.
