c/r: introduce CHECKPOINT_RESTORE symbol



For checkpoint/restore we need auxilary features being compiled into the
kernel, such as additional prctl codes, /proc/<pid>/map_files and etc...
but same time these features are not mandatory for a regular kernel so
CHECKPOINT_RESTORE config symbol should bring a way to disable them all at
once if one wish to get rid of additional functionality.

	  Enables additional kernel features in a sake of checkpoint/restore.
	  In particular it adds auxiliary prctl codes to setup process text,

	  If unsure, say N here.
