Move CONFIG_AIO to android-base.

CONFIG_AIO has legitimate use for the functionfs
driver, which is used with adb and mtp. It is now
required to be enabled for better performance
with those services.

Android Kernel Config Fragments

The files in these directories are meant to be used as a base for an Android kernel config. All devices must have the options in android-base.cfg configured as specified. If an android-base-ARCH.cfg file exists for the architecture of your device, the options in that file must be configured as specified also.

While not mandatory, the options in android-recommended.cfg enable advanced Android features.

Assuming you already have a minimalist defconfig for your device, a possible way to enable these options would be to use the merge_config.sh script in the kernel tree. From the root of the kernel tree:

     ARCH=<arch> scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh <...>/<device>_defconfig <...>/android-base.cfg <...>/android-base-<arch>.cfg <...>/android-recommended.cfg

This will generate a .config that can then be used to save a new defconfig or compile a new kernel with Android features enabled.

Because there is no tool to consistently generate these config fragments, lets keep them alphabetically sorted instead of random.
