libc/glibc: add fortify option

By default, recent versions of glibc and eglibc will build some
functions that take format strings (eg. printf, syslog...) with
run-time checks against some format string attacks. This is
called a fortified build.

Unfortunately, this fails somehow while building the instrumented
version of syslog, with some kind of circular dependency...

Disable fortified builds by default, and hide the enabling option
behind EXPERIMENTAL for daring users...

     1 This is a somewhat ordered TODO list:

     2 

     3 Recuring tasks:

     4 

     5 - update versions for every tools...

     6 

     7 - update and/or upgrade all samples

     8 

     9 

    10 Non-recurring tasks:

    11 

    12 - update newlib (for enhanced bare metal)

    13   - confirm existing implementation on targets other than AVR32

    14   - try to make it generic, will help for uClibc++

    15 

    16 - multilib

    17 

    18 - Cygwin target (needs newlib)

    19   - so we can build toolchains that generate code for Windows/Cygwin

    20 

    21 - Cygwin host

    22   - so we can build toolchains that run natively under Windows/Cygwin

    23 

    24 - mingw32 target

    25   - so we can build toolchains that generate code for Windows/Win32

    26 

    27 - mingw32 host

    28   - so we can build toolchains that run natively under Windows/Win32

    29     (without requiring Cygwin)

    30 

    31 - uClibc++

    32   - see newlib, above

    33 

    34 - uClinux

    35   - check whether we can use newlib under uClinux (?)
