Force disable yjit on OpenBSD

Browse source 
TestRubyOptions#test_enable was broken on OpenBSD after the yjit
merge. --yjit (and --enable-all, which enables --yjit) fails on
OpenBSD because yjit uses an insecure mmap call (both writable
and executable), in alloc_exec_mem, which OpenBSD does not allow.

This can probably be reverted if yjit switches to a more secure
mmap design (writable xor executable).  This would involve
initially calling mmap with PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, and after writing
of executable code has finished, using mprotect to switch to
PROT_READ | PROT_EXEC. I believe Firefox uses this approach for
their Javascript engine since Firefox 46.
