Enable eager FPU context switch by default on amd64.

With compilers making increasing use of vector instructions the
performance benefit of lazily switching FPU state is no longer a
desirable tradeoff.  Linux switched to eager FPU context switch some
time ago, and the idea was floated on the FreeBSD-current mailing list
some years ago[1].

Enable eager FPU context switch by default on amd64, with a tunable/sysctl
available to turn it back off.
