x86/cpu: Remove X86_FEATURE_NAMES

While discussing to change the visibility of X86_FEATURE_NAMES (see Link)
in order to remove CONFIG_EMBEDDED, Boris suggested to simply make the
X86_FEATURE_NAMES functionality unconditional.

As the need for really tiny kernel images has gone away and kernel images
with !X86_FEATURE_NAMES are hardly tested, remove this config and the whole
ifdeffery in the source code.
