9aef9b9fbc doc: fix LTO config option
The documentation says that CONFIG_ENABLE_LTO enables LTO during the
build, but the correct value actually is CONFIG_RTE_ENABLE_LTO.

098cc0fea3 build: add option to enable LTO
This patch adds an option to enable link time optimization.  In addition
to LTO option itself (-flto) fat-lto-objects are being used.  This is
because during the build pmdinfogen scans the generated ELF objects to
find this_pmd_name* symbol in symbol table.  Without fat-lto-objects gcc
produces ELF only with extra symbols for internal use during linking.
