x86: drop legacy (PC BIOS) boot in favor of EFI
The 16-bit port has experienced bitrot and failed to compile with more
recent linkers for at least a year. Fixing the linker error is insufficient
to restore a barebox that can boot to shell. This continued breakage likely
means that there are no users interested in updating. As new x86 projects
should be using MACH_EFI_GENERIC anyway, retire support for 16-bit legacy
boot (MACH_X86_GENERIC).
