profiles/use.desc: Make USE=lto global

Add a global USE=lto flag. The flag is used semi-consistently in 31 packages, with a few adding extra information. That said, probably many of these uses are invalid, as they are equivalent to adding `-flto` to CFLAGS. Signed-off-by: Michał Górny <[email protected]>
