Add optimizer barrier to benchmark calls of void-returning functions
The goal is to do the equivalent of clobbering memory, which forces the compiler to keep side effects that are external to the benchmarked function, while allowing it to optimize inside the benchmarked function. E.g. this cannot be optimized away: ```cpp BENCHMARK("foo") { global_count += 1; }; ``` while this can: ```cpp BENCHMARK("bar") { size_t local_count = 0; for (size_t i = 0; i < 100; ++i) { local_count += 1; } }; ```
