[Buildroot] [PATCH v3 3/3] package/dmalloc: re-enable package on Microblaze

With Microblaze Gcc version < 8.x build gives:
'Error: operation combines symbols in different segments'
This is due to bug 63261:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=63261. To avoid this,
the dmalloc package has a !BR2_microblaze dependency. However, gcc bug
63261 only triggers when optimization is enabled, so we can work around
the issue by passing -O0, which is what we do in other Buildroot
packages to work around this bug.

So, this commit passes -O0 when BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_GCC_BUG_63261, and
re-enables dmalloc on Microblaze.
