Drop confusing splash cmdline and --enable-progress configure option
This patch reverts back to the progress/status behavior of Finit < v3.0 because this is what most users expect, including the maintainer. The resulting code and configure script is a lot simpler to understand and maintain: - No more --enable-progress or --enable-progress-classic configure flags. Instead a progress_style variable in helpers.c that can be changed at compile time for those that really need it. - No more 'splash' kernel commnand line option. This turned out to be *very* confusing to many users who believed it was some sort of graphical splash screen à la Plymouth. Also, when Finit debug is enabled we now have a global 'debug' flag which now alo controls if klogctl() should be called to prevent the kernel logs to the console or not.
