Subject: compiler: allow all arches to enable CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING

Commit 60a3cdd06394 ("x86: add optimized inlining") introduced
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING, but it has been available only for x86.

The idea is obviously arch-agnostic.  This commit moves the config entry
from arch/x86/Kconfig.debug to lib/Kconfig.debug so that all
architectures can benefit from it.

This can make a huge difference in kernel image size especially when
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE is enabled.

For example, I got 3.5% smaller arm64 kernel for v5.1-rc1.

  dec       file
  18983424  arch/arm64/boot/Image.before
  18321920  arch/arm64/boot/Image.after

This also slightly improves the "Kernel hacking" Kconfig menu as
e61aca5158a8 ("Merge branch 'kconfig-diet' from Dave Hansen') suggested;
this config option would be a good fit in the "compiler option" menu.

-	---help---
-	  This option determines if the kernel forces gcc to inline the functions
-	  developers have marked 'inline'. Doing so takes away freedom from gcc to
-	  do what it thinks is best, which is desirable for the gcc 3.x series of
-	  compilers. The gcc 4.x series have a rewritten inlining algorithm and
-	  enabling this option will generate a smaller kernel there. Hopefully
-	  this algorithm is so good that allowing gcc 4.x and above to make the
