Help text update and tweak to defconfig to remove two more things that

the "maximum sane configuration" shouldn't have.  (Explicit MTAB support in
mount, which you should only need if you have no /proc, and FEATURE_CLEAN_UP,
which exists to humor valgrind and otherwise just bloats the code).

As a size optimization, busybox normally exits without explicitly
freeing dynamically allocated memory or closing files. This saves
space since the OS will clean up for us, but it can confuse debuggers
like valgrind, which report tons of memory and resource leaks.
Don't enable this unless you have a really good reason to clean
things up manually.
