Add visibility attribute for GCC >= 4
Proposed changes
Using p4est from a certain python library turned up multiple instances of the same extern variable, namely the package id (used internally for registering log priorities and debug memory counters). Add some defines to use the visibility attribute.
The attribute is placed only in the .h file for now. To make it work on windows, we may have to add it in front of the definition in the .c file, which I find a bit annoying. Shall we do it anyway or is the current approach sufficient?
Curious on feedback. @tamiko @sloede @lukasdreyer
