util/u_atomic: provide 64bit atomics where they're missing
There are still some distributions trying to support unfortunate people with old or exotic CPUs that don't have 64bit atomic operations. When compiling for such a machine, gcc conveniently inserts a library call to a helper, but it's implementation is missing and we get a linker error. This allows us to provide our own implementation, which is marked weak to prefer a better implementation, should one exist. v2: changed copyright, some style adjustments v3: [mattst88] Print results with AC_MSG_CHECKING/AC_MSG_RESULT Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=93089 Signed-off-by: Grazvydas Ignotas <notasas@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Matt Turner <mattst88@gmail.com>
