Nearly all targets with OS have memory protection, but bare-metal
targets don't.

If the default is YES, in ${arch}-tdep.c, we should set it to NO, and
set it back to YES in ${arch}-${os}-tdep.c. More changes are involved.
Since the number of supported architectures is greater than the number
of supported operating systems, we'll do less changes if the default is
NO. Only have to set it to YES for supported operating systems.
