module: allow symbol exports to be disabled

To allow existing C code to be incorporated into the decompressor or the
UEFI stub, introduce a CPP macro that turns all EXPORT_SYMBOL_xxx
declarations into nops, and #define it in places where such exports are
undesirable.  Note that this gets rid of a rather dodgy redefine of
linux/export.h's header guard.
