To avoid inserting __tsan_func_{entry,exit}, add option if supported by compiler. Currently only Clang can be told to not emit calls to these functions. It is safe to not emit these, since KCSAN does not rely on them.
Note that, if we disable __tsan_func_{entry,exit}(), we need to disable tail-call optimization in sanitized compilation units, as otherwise we may skip frames in the stack trace; in particular when the tail called function is one of the KCSAN's runtime functions, and a report is generated, might we miss the function where the actual access occurred. Since __tsan_func_{entry,exit}() insertion effectively disabled tail-call optimization, there should be no observable change.
