x86: enable PIE for dynamically linked executables
Compile all x86 programs on Android with -fPIE and -pie. This enables PIE (Position Independent Executables), which helps protect Android applications from exploitation due to memory management bugs. Note 1: PIE *static* executables are not supported at this time and require additional linker changes. Note 2: This change compliments 026a85b1, which was the exact same change, except for ARM. Testing: Rebuilt the tree completely from scratch, and verified that the system boots and basic functionality works in the emulator. Change-Id: I990064c37da3d857e663b27f31fee05f689a2824
