The "--as-needed" linker flag reduces the number of unused objects
and dependencies in an executable, making it smaller and faster to
load.

Some distributions implicitly specify "--as-needed" when linking
their package builds.  Building on Fedora appears not to.

So that building on any platform can catch build problems before
they are committed, explicitly specify --as-needed for executables.
