Alexandre Derumier 7b01cb974f configure: Add support for jemalloc
This adds "--enable-jemalloc" and "--disable-jemalloc" to allow linking
to jemalloc memory allocator.

We have already tcmalloc support,
but it seem to not working well with a lot of iothreads/disks.

The main problem is that tcmalloc use a shared thread cache of 16MB
by default.
With more threads, this cache is shared, and some bad garbage collections
can occur if the cache is too low.

It's possible to tcmalloc cache increase it with a env var:
TCMALLOC_MAX_TOTAL_THREAD_CACHE_BYTES=256MB

With default 16MB, performances are  really bad with more than 2 disks.
Increasing to 256MB, it's helping but still have problem with 16 disks/iothreads.

Jemalloc don't have performance problem with default configuration.

Here the benchmark results in iops of 1 qemu vm randread 4K iodepth=32,
with rbd block backend (librbd is doing a lot of memory allocation),
1 iothread by disk
