configure: Add basic valgrind-memcheck support

With the parameter --valgrind-memcheck, the configure script sets
reasonable defaults that can be overridden as explained in the
documentation.

The idea of using set_defaults is from Luca Barbato.

@subsection Using Valgrind
The configure script provides a shortcut for using valgrind to spot bugs
related to memory handling. Just add the option
@code{--toolchain=valgrind-memcheck} to your configure line, and
reasonable defaults will be set for running FATE under the supervision
of the @strong{memcheck} tool of the valgrind suite.
In case you need finer control over how valgrind is invoked, use the
@code{--target-exec='valgrind <your_custom_valgrind_options>} option in
your configure line instead.
