x86 setup: remove remnants of CONFIG_VIDEO_SELECT (read: vga=)

Browse Source 
Impact: cleanup

Video mode selection became always possible in 2.6.23-rc1 after i386 setup
code rewrite in C.

Regardless, VIDEO_SELECT is stupid config option because it affects only
kernel setup code, not code which always stays in memory.

vga= always possible now which is good.

config VIDEO_SELECT
bool "Video mode selection support"
depends on X86 && VGA_CONSOLE
---help---
This enables support for text mode selection on kernel startup. If
you want to take advantage of some high-resolution text mode your
card's BIOS offers, but the traditional Linux utilities like
SVGATextMode don't, you can say Y here and set the mode using the
"vga=" option from your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) or set
"vga=ask" which brings up a video mode menu on kernel startup. (Try
"man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader about
how to pass options to the kernel.)
Read the file <file:Documentation/svga.txt> for more information
about the Video mode selection support. If unsure, say N.
