x86_64,vsyscall: Make vsyscall emulation configurable
This adds CONFIG_X86_VSYSCALL_EMULATION, guarded by CONFIG_EXPERT. Turning it off completely disables vsyscall emulation, saving ~3.5k for vsyscall_64.c, 4k for vsyscall_emu_64.S (the fake vsyscall page), some tiny amount of core mm code that supports a gate area, and possibly 4k for a wasted pagetable. The latter is because the vsyscall addresses are misaligned and fit poorly in the fixmap.
