Yao Zi 1aa0dd0c04 configure: Defer check for -mcmodel=large until PIC/PIE checks are done
On RISC-V, large code model is only compatible with position-depedent
code. However, the configure script checks availability of -mcmodel=large
before determining whether PIC/PIE is enabled, and disable them.

This is problematic with toolchains that enable PIE by default, where
check for -mcmodel=large will always fail with,

  cc1: sorry, unimplemented: code model 'large' with '-fPIC'

and -mcmodel=medany will be silently used instead, causing relocation
failures at runtime with some memory layouts since -mcmodel=medany
requires all data and code to stay within a contiguous 4 GiB range.

Let's defer the check for -mcmodel=large until PIC/PIE is ensured disabled.

Fixes: f1957dc8a3 (RISC-V: Add to build system)
