x86: remove iBCS support

Browse source 
ibcs2 support has never been supported on 2.6 kernels as far as I know,
and if it has it must have been an external patch.  Anyways, if anybody
applies an external patch they could as well readd the ibcs checking
code to the ELF loader in the same patch.  But there is no reason to
keep this code running in all Linux kernels.  This will save at least
two strcmps each ELF execution.

No deprecation period because it could not have been used anyway.
