[PATCH v3 3/3] hyperv: Add CONFIG_MSHV_ROOT to gate root partition support

CONFIG_MSHV_ROOT allows kernels built to run as a normal Hyper-V guest
to exclude the root partition code, which is expected to grow
significantly over time.
This option is a tristate so future driver code can be built as a
(m)odule, allowing faster development iteration cycles.
If CONFIG_MSHV_ROOT is disabled, don't compile hv_proc.c, and stub
hv_root_partition() to return false unconditionally. This allows the
compiler to optimize away root partition code blocks since they will
be disabled at compile time.
In the case of booting as root partition *without* CONFIG_MSHV_ROOT
enabled, print a critical error (the kernel will likely crash).
