security hardening: add RELFO, FORTIFY options

This enables a user to build a complete system using these
options.  It is important to note that not all packages will
build correctly to start with.

Modeled after OpenWRT approach

A good testing tool to check a target's elf files for compliance
to an array of hardening techniques can be found here:

comment "Stack Smashing Protection needs a toolchain w/ SSP"
depends on !BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_SSP
choice
bool "RELRO Protection"
depends on BR2_SHARED_LIBS
help
Enable a link-time protection know as RELRO (RELocation Read Only)
which helps to protect from certain type of exploitation techniques
altering the content of some ELF sections.
config BR2_RELRO_NONE
bool "None"
help
Disables Relocation link-time protections.
config BR2_RELRO_PARTIAL
bool "Partial"
help
This option makes the dynamic section not writeable after
initialization (with almost no performance penalty).
config BR2_RELRO_FULL
bool "Full"
help
This option includes the partial configuration, but also
marks the GOT as read-only at the cost of initialization time
during program loading, i.e every time an executable is started.

bool "Buffer-overflow Detection (FORTIFY_SOURCE)"
depends on BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC
depends on !BR2_OPTIMIZE_0
help
Enable the _FORTIFY_SOURCE macro which introduces additional
checks to detect buffer-overflows in the following standard library
functions: memcpy, mempcpy, memmove, memset, strcpy, stpcpy,
strncpy, strcat, strncat, sprintf, vsprintf, snprintf, vsnprintf,
gets.
NOTE: This feature requires an optimization level of s/1/2/3/g
Support for this feature has been present since GCC 4.x.
config BR2_FORTIFY_SOURCE_NONE
bool "None"
help
Disables additional checks to detect buffer-overflows.
config BR2_FORTIFY_SOURCE_1
bool "Conservative"
help
This option sets _FORTIFY_SOURCE to 1 and only introduces
checks that shouldn't change the behavior of conforming
programs. Adds checks at compile-time only.
config BR2_FORTIFY_SOURCE_2
bool "Aggressive"
help
This option sets _FORTIFY_SOURCES to 2 and some more
checking is added, but some conforming programs might fail.
Also adds checks at run-time (detected buffer overflow
terminates the program)
