MFC r309412,r316109,r316132:

r309412 (by imp):

dd is currently a bootstrap tool. It really doesn't have any business
being a bootstrap tool. However, for reproducible build output,
FreeBSD added dd status=none because it was otherwise difficult to
suppress the status information, but retain any errors that might
happen. There's no real reason that dd has to be a build tool, other
than we use status=none unconditional. Remove dd from a bootstrap tool
entirely by only using status=none when available. This may also help
efforts to build the system on non-FreeBSD hosts as well.

r316109:

Don't hardcode input files for stage 1/2 bootloaders; use .ALLSRC instead

This is a better pattern to follow when creating the bootloaders and doing
the relevant space checks to make sure that the sizes aren't exceeded (and
thus, copy-pasting is a bit less error prone).

r316132:

Parameterize out 7680 (15 * 512) as BOOT2SIZE, similar to sys/boot/i386/zfsboot/...

This is being done to make it easier to change in the future--this action might be
needed sooner rather than later because of gcc 6.3.0 bailing, stating that there
is negative free space left (deficit) in the boot2 bootloader.

Fix build when WITH_SSP is set explicitly.

Enable GCC stack protection (aka Propolice) for userland:
- It is opt-out for now so as to give it maximum testing, but it may be
turned opt-in for stable branches depending on the consensus. You
can turn it off with WITHOUT_SSP.
- WITHOUT_SSP was previously used to disable the build of GNU libssp.
It is harmless to steal the knob as SSP symbols have been provided
by libc for a long time, GNU libssp should not have been much used.
- SSP is disabled in a few corners such as system bootstrap programs
(sys/boot), process bootstrap code (rtld, csu) and SSP symbols themselves.
- It should be safe to use -fstack-protector-all to build world, however
libc will be automatically downgraded to -fstack-protector because it
breaks rtld otherwise.
- This option is unavailable on ia64.

Enable GCC stack protection (aka Propolice) for kernel:
- It is opt-out for now so as to give it maximum testing.
- Do not compile your kernel with -fstack-protector-all, it won't work.
