Added gcc lto (Link Time Optimization) option

Browse source 
Just by adding the -flto option to CXXFLAGS link command
we can gain a few percent in speed.

On a Core i5-2500 (3300 Mhz, Sandy Bridge):

64 bit download version:

Without -flto: 1597151 n/s
With -flto : 1659664 n/s

No functional change.
