build: disable TLS heartbeat extension by default

Daiki Ueno requested to merge dueno/gnutls:wip/dueno/disable-heartbeat into master

The heartbeat extension in TLS (RFC 6520) is not widely used given other implementations dropped support for it. This makes it disabled by default, though the users are able to enable it back with the --enable-heartbeat-support configure option.

Fixes: #743 (closed)
