Update CTF's ctf_dict_t detection

As ctf_dict_t can be an opaque type depending on the version of
ctf-api.h, using AC_CHECK_TYPE won't work to detect it because that
macro invokes sizeof(ctf_dict_t).

With this change, we don't require that ctf_dict_t be fully defined.

	* configure.ac: Use AC_COMPILE_IFELSE to try and compile a code
	snippet that doesn't need that ctf_dict_t be fully defined.
