Link with -rdynamic instead of -Wl,-export-dynamic.

Recent versions of the OS X linker support this but follow the existing
OS X linker convention of using an underscore in the option name, i.e.,
-export_dynamic. Rather than changing our configure scripts to check for
that alternate spelling, it is simpler to just use the compiler's -rdynamic
option and let it deal with translating that to the appropriate linker
option. One potential disadvantage of this approach is that the compiler
will typically ignore -rdynamic on platforms where it is not supported, so
the HAVE_LINK_EXPORT_DYNAMIC in config.h will not necessarily show whether
that option has any effect or not. I don't see any in-tree uses of that
macro, so I'm assuming it is OK.
