intel_idle: disable module support
Right now the module capability is cauing more trouble
than it is worth. At least one distro built intel_idle as a module
where it lost the init race with ACPI, making it useless.
Make intel_idle bool so that if you select it, you will use it.
We can restore module capability after cpuidle is enhanced
to handle run-time changing of idle drivers.

intel_idle: delete power_policy modparam, and choose substate functions
The idea behind power policy was that it would start off as a modparam,
and then hook into the new "global" in-kernel power vs energy tunable.
But that tunable isn't happening, so delete the hook here.
With the policy hook gone, the sub-state choice functions
do not do anything useful, so delete them from the critical path.
To handle sub-states in the future, we will advertise them
with dedicated cpuidle_state entries. That is necessary
because some of the sub-states will have substantially different
properties than their peer sub-states.
