The new indirect_return attribute is intended to mark swapcontext in
<ucontext.h>.  This patch defines __HAVE_INDIRECT_RETURN_ATTRIBUTE__
so that it can be used checked before using indirect_return attribute
in <ucontext.h>.  It works when the indirect_return attribute is
backported to GCC 8.

OK for trunk?

Thanks.
