Now that the RCU-bh and RCU-sched update-side functions are simple
wrappers around their RCU counterparts, there isn't a whole lot of
point in testing them. This commit therefore removes the self-test
capability and removes the corresponding kernel-boot parameters.
It also updates the various rcutorture .boot files to remove the
kernel boot parameters that call for testing RCU-bh and RCU-sched.

Commit 6f1982fedd ("sched/isolation: Handle the nohz_full= parameter")
broke CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL=y kernels. This breakage is due to the code
under CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL failing to invoke the shiny new housekeeping
functions. This means that rcutorture scenario TREE04 now emits RCU CPU
stall warnings due to the RCU grace-period kthreads not being awakened
at a time of their choosing, or perhaps even not at all:

Because no one has complained about CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL=y being broken,
I hypothesize that no one is in fact using it, other than rcutorture.
This commit therefore eliminates CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL and updates
rcutorture's config files to instead use the nohz_full= kernel parameter
to put the desired CPUs into nohz_full mode.

Currently, the rcutorture scripts do not test boot-time adjustment of
leaf fanout (via the rcutree.rcu_fanout_leaf boot parameter), as was noted
during testing carried out by Iftekhar Ahmed of Oregon State University.
This commit therefore adjusts TREE04's CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_LEAF from 4 to 3,
and also adds rcutree.rcu_fanout_leaf=4 to its boot parameters. This
change forces RCU's boot-time geometry-change code to be exercised.

This commit uses the standard software ploy of introducing another
level of indirection below the configs directory. This allows each
torture-test suite to have its own set of Kconfig files, boot parameters,
and version-specific scripts. Initially, we have only rcu, but lock
will follow soonish.
