modpost: Allow extended modversions without basic MODVERSIONS

If you know that your kernel modules will only ever be loaded by a newer kernel, you can disable BASIC_MODVERSIONS to save space. This also allows easy creation of test modules to see how tooling will respond to modules that only have the new format.
