gh-126877: Fix the configure check for Tcl/Tk with optimizing compilers (GH-153543)

The check assigned the addresses of Tcl_Init() and Tk_Init() to unused
variables, which optimizing compilers can eliminate, so it linked even
when the libraries were missing.  Call the functions instead.
(cherry picked from commit ff0a9ae)
