bootstrap: update and enable the LLVM version-check

While the `config.toml.example` comments say "we automatically check the
version by default," we actually didn't.  That check was badly out of
date, only allowing 3.5, 3.6, or 3.7.  This it now updated to the new
3.9 minimum requirement, and truly enabled by default.
