The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope
than only small devices.

This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option in the same file.  Followup patches will fix the
remainder of the occurrences in the tree.

Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention:
only expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes
they are making should enable it.
