kmemcheck: make kconfig accessible for other architectures

The Kconfig options of kmemcheck are hidden under arch/x86 which makes porting
to other architectures harder. To fix that, move the Kconfig bits to
lib/Kconfig.kmemcheck and introduce a CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_KMEMCHECK config option
that architectures can define.
