menu: fix embedded menu snafu

The COMPAT_BRK kconfig symbol does not depend on EMBEDDED, but it is in
the midst of the EMBEDDED menu symbols, so it mucks up the EMBEDDED menu.
Fix by moving it to just after all of the EMBEDDED menu symbols.  Also,
ANON_INODES has a similar problem, so move it to just above the EMBEDDED
menu items since it is used in the EMBEDDED menu.

Randomizing heap placement makes heap exploits harder, but it
also breaks ancient binaries (including anything libc5 based).
This option changes the bootup default to heap randomization
disabled, and can be overriden runtime by setting
/proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space to 2.
On non-ancient distros (post-2000 ones) N is usually a safe choice.
