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

- 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.)
