    Generic configury support for shared libs on VxWorks
    
    This change adds the configury bits to activate the build of
    shared libs on VxWorks ports configured with --enable-shared,
    for libraries variants where this is generally supported (rtp,
    code model !large - currently not compatible with -fPIC).
    
    Set lt_cv_deplibs_check_method in libtool.m4, so the build of
    libraries know how to establish dependencies.  This is useful in
    configurations such as aarch64 where proper support of LSE relies
    on accurate dependency information between libstdc++ and libgcc_s
    to begin with.
    
            * libtool.m4 (*vxworks*): When enable_shared, set dynamic_linker
            and friends for rtp !large. Assume the linker has the required
            abilities and set lt_cv_deplibs_check_method.
