modpost: change the license of EXPORT_SYMBOL to bool type

There were more EXPORT_SYMBOL types in the past. The following commits
removed unused ones.

 - f1c3d73e ("module: remove EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FUTURE")
 - 36794822 ("module: remove EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL*")

There are 3 remaining in enum export, but export_unknown does not make
any sense because we never expect such a situation like "we do not know
how it was exported".

If the symbol name starts with "__ksymtab_", but the section name
does not start with "___ksymtab+" or "___ksymtab_gpl+", it is not an
exported symbol.

It occurs when a variable starting with "__ksymtab_" is directly defined:

   int __ksymtab_foo;

Presumably, there is no practical issue for using such a weird variable
name (but there is no good reason for doing so, either).

Anyway, that is not an exported symbol. Setting export_unknown is not
the right thing to do. Do not call sym_add_exported() in this case.

With pointless export_unknown removed, the export type finally becomes
boolean (either EXPORT_SYMBOL or EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL).

I renamed the field name to is_gpl_only. EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL sets it true.
Only GPL-compatible modules can use it.

I removed the orphan comment, "How a symbol is exported", which is
unrelated to sec_mismatch_count. It is about enum export.
See commit bd5cbced ("kbuild: export-type enhancement to modpost.c")
