x86: Relegate CONFIG_PAT and CONFIG_MTRR configurability to EMBEDDED
MTRR and PAT support (which got added to CPUs over 10 years ago) are no longer really optional in that more and more things are depending on PAT just working, including various drivers and newer versions of X. (to not even speak of MTRR) Having this as a regular config option just no longer makes sense. This patch relegates CONFIG_X86_PAT to the EMBEDDED category so ultra-embedded can still disable it if they really need to.
