kbuild: revive single target %.ko

I removed the single target %.ko in commit ff9b45c55b ("kbuild:
modpost: read modules.order instead of $(MODVERDIR)/*.mod") because
the modpost stage does not work reliably. For instance, the module
dependency, modversion, etc. do not work if we lack symbol information
from the other modules.

Yet, some people still want to build only one module in their interest,
and it may be still useful if it is used within those limitations.

Fixes: ff9b45c55b ("kbuild: modpost: read modules.order instead of $(MODVERDIR)/*.mod")
