Glib::Binding: Avoid warning from gcc-10

g++-10 with optimization level -O1 or higher warns about possible use of
an uninitialized variable when tests/glibmm_binding/main.cc is compiled.
I don't understand why.

There is no warning if the private method Glib::Binding::TransformProp::
operator()() is compiled without optimization. Add an attribute that turns
off optimization for this method when it's compiled with with gcc-10 or
higher. gcc-9 does not warn. gcc-10 does not warn in glibmm-2.4, where
std::optional is not used.
