fs, kernel: permit disabling the uselib syscall
uselib hasn't been used since libc5; glibc does not use it. Support
turning it off.
When disabled, also omit the load_elf_library implementation from
binfmt_elf.c, which only uselib invokes.
bloat-o-meter:
add/remove: 0/4 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-785 (-785)
function old new delta
padzero 39 36 -3
uselib_flags 20 - -20
sys_uselib 168 - -168
SyS_uselib 168 - -168
load_elf_library 426 - -426
The new CONFIG_USELIB defaults to `y'.
