[20170302] Enable CFI by default for amd64
__HardenedBSD_version = 49

Enable WITH_CFI by default on HardenedBSD/amd64.
Control-Flow Integrity (CFI) is an exploit mitigation
technique developed in the clang/llvm project. Now that
base has clang 4.0.0, which brings a linker that supports
Link-Time Optimization (LTO), lld, we can now make use of
CFI, which requires LTO.

This also enables lld by default for amd64 and arm64. Disable
CFI by setting WITHOUT_CFI in src.conf(5).
