x86/32: Remove CONFIG_DOUBLEFAULT

Make the doublefault exception handler unconditional on 32-bit. Yes,
it is important to be able to catch #DF exceptions instead of silent
reboots. Yes, the code size increase is worth every byte. And one less
CONFIG symbol is just the cherry on top.

No functional changes.

This option allows trapping of rare doublefault exceptions that
would otherwise cause a system to silently reboot. Disabling this
option saves about 4k and might cause you much additional grey
hair.
