    configure: Fix the check for _Static_assert
    
    The check for whether the compiler supports _Static_assert didn't work
    properly because the AC_TRY_COMPILE function puts the source
    definition in its own main function. The test therefore ends up
    declaring a nested main function which GCC allows. If _Static_assert
    isn't available then it just looks like an implicit declaration of a
    function which only causes a warning in GCC so it would still compile.
    
    This patch changes it to use AC_COMPILE_IFELSE instead. This macro
    makes it possible to specify the complete source code so
    _Static_assert can be called from the global scope. AC_LANG_PROGRAM is
    used to generate the program. For extra aesthetics it now also
    generates a 'checking for...' message while the script is running.
