build: Switch CLEAN back on by default
There have been too many issues with non-META_MODE incremental builds
recently, and it is clear that most users, even developers, were not
aware that the default had been switched.
This will be revisited once more work has been done to help prevent
future breakage.
This reverts commit ba373fca78a114768244d6a8c27983da870c1169.

Thank you!
Maybe we should just flip CLEAN on for a couple of days/weeks when
there's something disruptive on main that benefits from thorough
cleaning, but have it off by default?
As I understand it, doing pkgbase builds with CLEAN rebuilds all
packages, and pkg will want to update them even if the binaries within
are unchanged. We set WITHOUT_CLEAN=1 in the cluster pkgbase builder to
try to make sure that doesn't happen.
I would love to put that flag under developers' control so pkgbase
package production doesn't stall when a WITH_CLEAN=1 build is needed.
