configure.ac: Add -Wpointer-arith to the maintainer CFLAGS

GCC by default allows pointer arithmetic on void* pointers and treats
them as having a size of 1 byte. This is non-standard behaviour and
causes errors on some compilers so we should try to avoid
it. -Wpointer-arith warns about these cases.
