Fake modpost stage for LINUX_COMPILE.
Currently, when building a test case, we're compiling an entire Linux module from beginning to end. This includes the MODPOST stage, which generates a "conftest.mod.c" file with some boilerplate module declaration code. This poses a problem when configuring for built-in on kernels which have loadable module support disabled. In this case conftest.mod.c is referencing disabled code, resulting in a compilation failure, thus breaking the tests. This patch fixes the issue by faking the modpost stage when the --enable-linux-builtin option is provided. It does so by forcing the modpost command to be /bin/true, and using an empty conftest.mod.c file. The test module still compiles fine, although the result isn't loadable, but we don't really care at this point. Note it is important to preserve the modpost stage when building out of tree. The ZFS_AC_KERNEL_BLK_END_REQUEST, ZFS_AC_KERNEL_BLK_QUEUE_FLUSH, and ZFS_AC_KERNEL_BLK_RQ_BYTES configure checks all depend on it to identify GPL-only symbols.
