[PATCH v3] ima: add a new CONFIG for loading arch-specific policies

Every time a new architecture defines the IMA architecture specific
functions - arch_ima_get_secureboot() and arch_ima_get_policy(), the IMA
include file needs to be updated. To avoid this "noise", this patch
defines a new IMA Kconfig IMA_SECURE_AND_OR_TRUSTED_BOOT option, allowing
the different architectures to select it.

v3:
* Updated and tested the patch with improvements suggested by Michael.
It now uses "imply" instead of "select". Thanks Michael.
* Have missed replacing the CONFIG_IMA in x86 and s390 with new config,
that was resulting in redefinition when the IMA_SECURE_AND_OR_TRUSTED_BOOT
is not enabled. Thanks to Mimi for recognizing the problem.

v2:
* Fixed the issue identified by Mimi. Thanks Mimi, Ard, Heiko and Michael for
discussing the fix.
