[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.
