[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] configure: disable the new optimizer in Visual Studio 2015 Update 3

[Hendrik Leppkes]

Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 introduced a new SSA optimizer, however
it unfortunately causes miscompilations. Until it is fixed, the new
optimizations are disabled and should be re-checked on subsequent
compiler releases.

Fixes recent FATE failure on VS2015 stations.
