Remove COMPAT_FREEBSD4/5/6/7/9 from MINIMAL and FIRECRACKER kernel configurations

FIRECRACKER is not a legacy config, so remove the really old FreeBSD
versions from it. MINIMAL has a similar history, and limited target
audience which has little to no overlap with really old binaries. Either
of these is really easy to get additional binary compat with the include
directive, so balance things better. Leave GENERIC alone.

x86: move EARLY_AP_STARTUP into DEFAULTS

EARLY_AP_STARTUP was introduced in 2016 (commit fdce57a04219) with note:

As a transition aid, the new behavior is moved under a new
kernel option (EARLY_AP_STARTUP). This will allow the option
to be turned off if need be during initial testing. I hope to
enable this on x86 by default in a followup commit ...

It was enabled by default, but became effectively mandatory (on x86)
some time later. Move it to DEFAULTS to avoid an unbootable system if
the option is left out of a custom kernel configuration file.
