Change the LTO default to off from probe because it wastes build time on
developer machines.  Anyone who really wants it for release builds or
whatever can still turn it on.

Build time is not the problem. Making the resultant binary
completely unusable with gdb and hence undebuggable is the real
problem with LTO.
