x86: offer frame pointers in all build modes

CONFIG_FRAME_POINTERS=y results in much better debug info for the
kernel (clear and precise backtraces), with the only drawback being
a ~1% increase in kernel size.

So offer it unconditionally and enable it by default.

If you say Y here the resulting kernel image will be slightly larger
and slower, but it might give very useful debugging information on
some architectures or if you use external debuggers.
If you don't debug the kernel, you can say N.
