syscalls/x86: auto-create compat_sys_*() prototypes
compat_sys_*() functions are no longer called from within the kernel on x86 except from the system call table. Linking the system call does not require compat_sys_*() function prototypes at least on x86. Therefore, generate compat_sys_*() prototypes on-the-fly within the COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro, and remove x86-specific prototypes from various header files.
