Make configure builtin-aware.

This patch adds a new option to configure: --enable-linux-builtin. When
this option is used, the following happens:

 - Compilation of kernel modules is disabled.

 - A failure to find UTS_RELEASE is followed by a suggestion to run
   "make prepare" on the kernel source tree.

This patch also adds a new test which tries to compile an empty module
as a basic toolchain sanity test. If it fails and the option was
specified, the error is followed by a suggestion to run "make scripts"
on the kernel source tree.
