Before, the stack protector flag was sanity checked before .config had been reprocessed. This meant the build couldn't be aborted early, and only a warning could be emitted followed later by the compiler blowing up with an unknown flag. This has caused a lot of confusion over time, so this splits the flag selection from sanity checking and performs the sanity checking after the make has been restarted from a reprocessed .config, so builds can be aborted as early as possible now. Additionally moves the x86-specific sanity check to the same location, since it suffered from the same warn-then-wait-for-compiler-failure problem.
