Tom Fogal 93393411e3 Add macro for detecting thread local storage support.
This adds an AX_TLS macro which attempts to identify if the
underlying compiler/platform supports thread local storage (TLS).
The macro comes from the autoconf macro archive.

# SYNOPSIS
#
# AX_TLS
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
# Provides a test for the compiler support of thread local storage (TLS)
# extensions. Defines TLS if it is found. Currently only knows about GCC
# and MSVC. I think SunPro uses the same as GCC, and Borland apparently
# supports either.
