    linux(4): Add compat.linux32.emulate_i386 knob.
    
    Historically 32-bit Linuxulator under amd64 emulated the real i386
    behavior. Since 3d8dd983 the old i386 Linux world can't be used under
    amd64 Linuxulator as it don't know anything about amd64 machine (which
    is returned now by newuname() syscall). So, add a knob to allow to swith
    the behavior and use i386 Linux binaries on amd64.
    Set knob to the new behavior as I think this is common to the modern
    Linux distros.
