x86/cpu, x86/platform, watchdog: Remove CONFIG_X86_RDC321X support

This depends on M486 CPU support, which has been removed.

Note that we still keep the RDC321X MFD, watchdog and GPIO
drivers, because apparently there were 586/686 CPUs offered with the
RDC321X, according to Arnd Bergmann:

| "the [RDC321X] product line is still actively developed by RDC
|  and DM&P, and I suspect that some of the drivers are still used
|  on 586tsc-class (vortex86dx, vortex86mx) and 686-class
|  (vortex86dx3, vortex86ex) SoCs that do run modern kernels and
|  get updates."

For this reason, update the watchdog driver and offer it on
the broader 32-bit landscape, which has been COMPILE_TEST=y
build-tested previously already:

  -       depends on X86_RDC321X || COMPILE_TEST
  +       depends on X86_32 || COMPILE_TEST

The MFD and GPIO drivers were already independent of CONFIG_X86_RDC321X.
