context-tracking: Introduce CONFIG_HAVE_TIF_NOHZ
A few archs (x86, arm, arm64) don't rely anymore on TIF_NOHZ to call
into context tracking on user entry/exit but instead use static keys
(or not) to optimize those calls. Ideally every arch should migrate to
that behaviour in the long run.
Settle a config option to let those archs remove their TIF_NOHZ
definitions.
