73adeee385 Enable FORTIFY and SP for native builds (#9537)
* Enable FORITFY and NX for native builds

meshtasticd does have an executable stack and is not built with fortify, which makes exploitation of memory corruption bugs easier than it has to be. This enables fortify and a non-executable stack.

This gives the following improvements on Debian Trixie:

$ checksec --file=./.pio/build/native/meshtasticd
RELRO           STACK CANARY      NX            PIE             RPATH      RUNPATH	Symbols		FORTIFY	Fortified	Fortifiable	FILE
Partial RELRO   No canary found   NX enabled    PIE enabled     No RPATH   No RUNPATH   13516 Symbols	  No	0		17		./.pio/build/native/meshtasticd

$ checksec --file=./.pio/build/native/meshtasticd
RELRO           STACK CANARY      NX            PIE             RPATH      RUNPATH	Symbols		FORTIFY	Fortified	Fortifiable	FILE
Partial RELRO   Canary found      NX enabled    PIE enabled     No RPATH   No RUNPATH   13519 Symbols	  Yes	12		20		./.pio/build/native/meshtasticd

Tested with --sim mode I do not get any crashes or similar.

94b7149958 Remove unused hmx variable (#9529)
The variable is not used at all in the function, remove it to
silence the compiler warning.

Eric SesterhennandBen Meadors c8a9cdc148 Make sure we always return a value in NodeDB::restorePreferences() (#9516)
In case FScom is not defined there is no return statement. This
moves the return outside of the ifdef to make sure a defined
value is returned.

7221fc4d4b Delete unused code (#9350)
* Delete unused code

CryptoEngine::clearKeys() is not used in the code base, therefore this
cleanup removes the code. It might give casual reviewers the impression,
that keys are wiped.

Since the code uses memset() which might be optimized away by the
compiler, using the code might not even cause the memory
to be wiped.

* Update CryptoEngine.cpp

Fix stray newline, this is the only thing that I can come up with that might confuse the linter.
