x86/kconfig/64: Enable popular generic kernel options in the defconfig

This is the last set of options picked up from major Linux distributions:

- CONFIG_UAPI_HEADER_TEST=y

x86 developers frequently modify UAPI headers during development,
make sure they get tested.

- CONFIG_WATCH_QUEUE=y

All major distros have general notification queue support enabled.
