Sebastian Hahn 1f5c5624f4 Use dead_strip to reduce binary size on OS X
This option seems to be supported all the way back to at least 10.4, so
enabling it for OS X in general should be fine. If not, someone will
yell.

With no libs statically linked, that's a 3% win in binary size, with
just libevent linked statically, this gives us an advantage of 5% in
terms of binary size, and with libevent and openssl statically linked,
we gain over 18% or over 500KB.

Implements ticket 2915.

o Minor features:
- Use the dead_strip option when building Tor on OS X. This reduces binary
size by almost 19% when linking openssl and libevent statically, which
we do for TBB.
