ide: remove CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD_IDE config option (take 2)

* Remove CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD hack from init_hwif_default()
  ("hda=noprobe hdb=noprobe" kernel parameters should be used
  instead if somebody wishes to use the old "hd" driver).

* Make CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD_ONLY config option available also when
  IDE subsystem is used and update help entry.

* Remove no longer needed CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD_IDE config option.

v2:
* Update documentation to suggest "hda=noprobe hdb=noprobe"
  instead of obsoleted "ide0=noprobe".

* Update Documentation/ide/ide.txt.

-          There are two drivers for MFM/RLL/IDE disks.  Most people use just
-          the new enhanced driver by itself.  This option however installs the
-          old hard disk driver to control the primary IDE/disk interface in
-          the system, leaving the new enhanced IDE driver to take care of only
-          the 2nd/3rd/4th IDE interfaces.  Doing this will prevent you from
-          having an IDE/ATAPI CD-ROM or tape drive connected to the primary
-          IDE interface.  Choosing this option may be useful for older systems
-          which have MFM/RLL/ESDI controller+drives at the primary port
