linux-user: Allow targets to specify a minimum uname release

For newer target architectures, glibc can be picky about the kernel
version: for example, it will not run on an aarch64 system unless
the kernel reports itself as at least 3.8.0. Accommodate this by
enhancing the existing support for faking the kernel version so
that each target can optionally specify a minimum version: if
the user doesn't force a specific fake version then we will override
with the minimum required version only if the real host kernel
version is insufficient.

Use this facility to let aarch64 report a minimum of 3.8.0.
