[config] Warn againt using ash as CONFIG_SHELL

It apears that more and more ./configure scripts and Makefiles
make use of non-POSIXly correct shell constructs, that don't
work with ash.

For now, just warn the user against using ash, but keep it as
an option in case newer versions of the /broken/ components
come fixed, and we can again use ash, as it is in some cases
really faster than bash.

     9 Hi,
    10 
    11 The appended patch fixes a typo in a low-level lock function.  It
    12 set the correct 3rd argument for the futex syscall in loop.  Sorry
    13 for missing such an embarrassing bug.
