Building userspace applications through the kbuild "userprogs" framework
requires a libc. Kernel toolchains often do not contain a libc.
In this case it is useful to use the nolibc library from the kernel tree.
Nolibc does not support all architectures and requires compiler flags.

Add a kconfig option, so users can know where it is available and provide a
variable for common options.
