x86, espfix: Make it possible to disable 16-bit support

commit 34273f41d57ee8d854dcd2a1d754cbb546cb548f upstream.

Embedded systems, which may be very memory-size-sensitive, are
extremely unlikely to ever encounter any 16-bit software, so make it
a CONFIG_EXPERT option to turn off support for any 16-bit software
whatsoever.
