kbuild: Abort build on bad stack protector flag

Before, the stack protector flag was sanity checked before .config had
been reprocessed. This meant the build couldn't be aborted early, and
only a warning could be emitted followed later by the compiler blowing
up with an unknown flag. This has caused a lot of confusion over time,
so this splits the flag selection from sanity checking and performs the
sanity checking after the make has been restarted from a reprocessed
.config, so builds can be aborted as early as possible now.

Additionally moves the x86-specific sanity check to the same location,
since it suffered from the same warn-then-wait-for-compiler-failure
problem.

# Handle stack protector mode.
#
# Since kbuild can potentially perform two passes (first with the old
# .config values and then with updated .config values), we cannot error out
# if a desired compiler option is unsupported. If we were to error, kbuild
# could never get to the second pass and actually notice that we changed
# the option to something that was supported.
#
# Additionally, we don't want to fallback and/or silently change which compiler
# flags will be used, since that leads to producing kernels with different
# security feature characteristics depending on the compiler used. ("But I
# selected CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG! Why did it build with _REGULAR?!")
#
# The middle ground is to warn here so that the failed option is obvious, but
# to let the build fail with bad compiler flags so that we can't produce a
# kernel when there is a CONFIG and compiler mismatch.
#
# This selects the stack protector compiler flag. Testing it is delayed
# until after .config has been reprocessed, in the prepare-compiler-check
# target.
