efi/libstub: EFI_GENERIC_STUB_INITRD_CMDLINE_LOADER should not default to yes

EFI_GENERIC_STUB_INITRD_CMDLINE_LOADER is deprecated, so it should not
be enabled by default.

In light of commit 4da0b2b7e67524cc ("efi/libstub: Re-enable command
line initrd loading for x86"), keep the default for X86.

Fixes: cf6b83664895a5c7 ("efi/libstub: Make initrd file loader configurable")
