Configure support for --enable-stack-protector [BZ #7065]
This adds =all and =strong, with obvious semantics, defaulting to off. We don't validate the value of the option yet: that's in a later patch. Nor do we use it for anything at this stage. We differentiate between 'the compiler understands -fstack-protector' and 'the user wanted -fstack-protector' so that we can pass -fno-stack-protector in appropriate places even if the user didn't want to turn on -fstack-protector for other parts. (This helps us overcome another existing limitation, that glibc doesn't work with GCCs hacked to pass in -fstack-protector by default.) We also arrange to set the STACK_PROTECTOR_LEVEL #define to a value appropriate for the stack-protection level in use for each file in particular.
