objtool: Add CONFIG_OBJTOOL
Now that stack validation is an optional feature of objtool, add
CONFIG_OBJTOOL and replace most usages of CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION with
it.
CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION can now be considered to be frame-pointer
specific. CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC is already inherently valid for live
patching, so no need to "validate" it.
