[PATCH] Remove ENABLE_SSE option from i386 and pc98

Hi,

Here is a patch for review, which removes ENABLE_SSE from i386 and
pc98 platforms.  I think we should have it before we branch RELENG_6.

The reason why the option should be removed:

	- ENABLE_SSE was turned on by default 2 years and 9 months
	  ago, for I686_CPU.  It makes few sense to "enable" something
	  that is already enabled (No I586_CPUs supports SSE so far
	  as I am aware)
	- We have DISABLE_SSE to disable SSE, having both ENABLE_SSE
	  and DISABLE_SSE is quite confusing, since DISABLE_SSE
	  always overrides ENABLE_SSE.

Cheers,
