lockup_detector: Introduce CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR

This new config is deemed to simplify even more the lockup detector
dependencies and can make it easier to bring a smooth sorting
between archs that support the new generic lockup detector and those
that still have their own, especially for those that are in the
middle of this migration.

Instead of checking whether we have CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR +
CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_NMI each time an arch wants to know if it needs
to build its own lockup detector, take a shortcut with this new
config. It is enabled only if the hardlockup detection part of
the whole lockup detector is on.
