config: Break out base options for usage with NULL ISA

This patch breaks out the most basic configuration options into a set
of base options, to allow them to be used also by scripts that do not
involve any ISA, and thus no actual CPUs or devices.

The patch also fixes a few modules so that they can be imported in a
NULL build, and avoid dragging in FSConfig every time Options is
imported.
