Kconfig: update flightly outdated CONFIG_SMP documentation

Browse Source 
Remove an outdated reference to "most personal computers" having only one
CPU, and change the use of "singleprocessor" and "single processor" in
CONFIG_SMP's documentation to "uniprocessor" across all arches where that
documentation is present.
