It turned out that symlinking compile_commands.json from the top level
source dir has some issues:
* file is not created on Windows and symlinking may cause an error
* some IDEs create their own json and error out b/c a file exists
Since clangd also looks for the json in build/ directories by default,
we now symlink the whole build directory instead, not just the json file.
This approach requires for the existing build/ dir in the repo to
vanish. Luckily it only contains one automake include file, which is
moved to the top level source dir.
Lastly, make this an opt-in feature, so that the default configuration
of the buildsystem never causes a build failure because of this.
