rcutorture: Allow rcutorture without RCU Tasks Rude
Unless a kernel builds rcutorture, whether built-in or as a module, that kernel is also built with CONFIG_TASKS_RUDE_RCU, whether anything else needs Tasks Rude RCU or not. This unnecessarily increases kernel size. This commit therefore decouples the presence of rcutorture from the presence of RCU Tasks Rude. However, there is a need to select CONFIG_TASKS_RUDE_RCU for testing purposes. Except that casual users must not be bothered with questions -- for them, this needs to be fully automated. There is thus a CONFIG_FORCE_TASKS_RUDE_RCU that selects CONFIG_TASKS_RUDE_RCU, is user-selectable, but which depends on CONFIG_RCU_EXPERT.
