Julien Dusser df0bd42fde build: add hardened builds with PIE (ASLR) support
Introduce a configuration option to build a "hardened" OpenWrt with
ASLR PIE support.

Add new option PKG_ASLR_PIE to enable Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR)
by building Position Independent Executables (PIE). This new option protects
against "return-to-text" attacks.

Busybox need a special care, link is done with ld, not gcc, leading to
unknown flags. Set BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_PIE instead and disable PKG_ASLR_PIE.

If other failing packages were found, PKG_ASLR_PIE:=0 should be added to
their Makefiles.
