bc1d191389 KConfig: disable module BTF debug info
enabling this effectively makes the debug info of the kernel image part
of the kernel <-> module ABI[0], potentially breaking module loading for
otherwise compatible kernel/module combinations.

there were several user reports[1,2,3,..], and although a workaround
exists (re-installing the currently booted version, loading the module,
then upgrading again) disabling this until it's clear how to proceed
seems like the way to go.

disabling via patch is needed, since leaving it unset via `-d` or
explicitly disabled via `--set-val` doesn't work - it's auto-enabled
based on build-env pahole supporting split BTF generation.
