[config] Allow user to specify custom CONFIG_SHELL

In case the shell the user wants to use as CONFIG_SHELL is located in a
weird place (eg. /opt/bash/bin/bash), or is weirdly named (eg. bash-4),
let the user enter the patch to the shell.

    11 On sh[34]-linux, memset function does not work if 2nd argument is negative
    12 and 3rd argument is greater than 12.
    13 for example, memset(ptr, "\xda", 20) sets 0xff instead of 0xda.
    14  
    15 Attached patch fixes this problem.

    17 	* sysdeps/sh/memset.S (memset): Correct 2nd argument handling.
