i386: divorce CONFIG_X86_PAE from CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G

PAE is useful for more than supporting more than 4GB RAM.  It supports
expanded swapspace and NX executable protections.  Some users may want NX
or expanded swapspace support without the overhead or instability of
highmem.  For these reasons, the following patch divorces CONFIG_X86_PAE
from CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G.

PAE is required for NX support, and furthermore enables
larger swapspace support for non-overcommit purposes. It
has the cost of more pagetable lookup overhead, and also
consumes more pagetable space per process.
