FORTIFY_SOURCE enabled by default (WIP)

The FORTIFY_SOURCE GSoC 2015 project has advanced enormously and is ready for
testing.

The attached patch integrates the framework and fortifies the base system. An
exp-run in the ports tree may detect two types of issues:

- Any buffer overfow in the base system will cause the utility to stop and
report the issue.

- Some ports may define FORTIFY_SOURCE by default: they will grab the headers
and run system checks. Some ports may have linuxisms upon detecting
FORTIFY_SOURCE that would be interesting to find before bringing the framework.
