KJ Tsanaktsidis 0ccb80d6bf Extract hardening CFLAGS to a special $hardenflags variable
This changes the automatic detection of -fstack-protector,
-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE, and -mbranch-protection to write to $hardenflags
instead of $XCFLAGS. The definition of $cflags is changed to
"$hardenflags $orig_cflags $optflags $debugflags $warnflags" to match.

Furthermore, these flags are _prepended_ to $hardenflags, rather than
appended.

The implications of doing this are as follows:

* If a CRuby builder specifies cflags="-mbranch-protection=foobar" at
  the ./configure script, and the configure script detects that
  -mbranch-protection=pac-ret is accepted, then GCC will be invoked as
  "gcc -mbranch-protection=pac-ret -mbranch-protection=foobar". Since
  the last flags take precedence, that means that user-supplied values
  of these flags in $cflags will take priority.
* Likewise, if a CRuby builder explicitly specifies
  "hardenflags=-mbranch-protection=foobar", because we _prepend_ to
  $hardenflags in our autoconf script, we will still invoke GCC as
  "gcc -mbranch-protection=pac-ret -mbranch-protection=foobar".
* If a CRuby builder specifies CFLAGS="..." at the configure line,
  automatic detection of hardening flags is ignored as before.
* C extensions will _also_ be built with hardening flags now as well
  (this was not the case by default before because the detected flags
  went into $XCFLAGS).

Additionally, as part of this work, I changed how the detection of
PAC/BTI in Context.S works. Rather than appending the autodetected
option to ASFLAGS, we simply compile a set of test programs with the
actual CFLAGS in use to determine what PAC/BTI settings were actually
chosen by the builder. Context.S is made aware of these choices through
some custom macros.

The result of this work is that:

* Ruby will continue to choose some sensible defaults for hardening
  options for the C compiler
* Distributors are able to specify CFLAGS that are consistent with their
  distribution and override these defaults
* Context.S will react to whatever -mbranch-protection is actually in
  use, not what was autodetected
* Extensions get built with hardening flags too.
