enables JIT only if the current hardware is supported.
. If you are enabling JIT under SELinux you may also want to add
--enable-jit-sealloc, which enables the use of an execmem allocator in JIT
that is compatible with SELinux. This has no effect if JIT is not enabled.

It does not support fork() operation and may crash when no disk space is
available. This option has no effect if JIT is disabled.
