x86/entry: Make IA32 syscalls' availability depend on ia32_enabled()
Another major aspect of supporting running of 32bit processes is the
ability to access 32bit syscalls. Such syscalls can be invoked by
using the legacy int 0x80 handler and sysenter/syscall instructions.
If IA32 emulation is disabled ensure that each of those 3 distinct
mechanisms are also disabled. For int 0x80 a #GP exception would be
generated since the respective descriptor is not going to be loaded at
all. Invoking sysenter will also result in a #GP since IA32_SYSENTER_CS
contains an invalid segment. Finally, syscall instruction cannot really
be disabled so it's configured to execute a minimal handler.
