autotools: preparation to use memfd_create(2)

This is a preparation to use memfd_create(2) system call for test programs
of axfer. The system call was introduced at Linux kernel v3.17 and
relatively new.

For safe, this commit adds detection of memfd_create() in autotools side
so that application can handle the case not to detect.
