configure: add --without-mdb flag

Add a configuration flag that prevents mdb_v8.so from being built. The default behavior is still the same and mdb_v8.so is built by default on Solaris based platforms such as SmartOS. Using --without-mdb fixes build issues on Solaris based platforms where libproc.h is not available or not compatible with the one shipped by SmartOS. Fixes nodejs#6439.
