Workaround crashes in QtQml code related to dead-store elimination
When compiled in release mode with GCC 6, QtQml may crash. This is because the C++ compiler is more aggressive about dead-store elimination in situations where a memory store to a location precedes the construction of an object at that memory location. The QV4::MemoryManager::allocate{Managed,Object} functions allocate memory and write to it before the caller does a placement new to construct an object in the same memory. The compiler considers these writes before the constructor as "dead stores" and eliminates them. The -fno-lifetime-dse compiler flag is added to disable this more aggressive dead-store eliminiation optimization. This is a temporary workaround until a proper solution is found.
