Welcome to easy part on adding the option to hide/show in settings

1. Decompile the Settings.apk
2. Download this View attachment 3606027 and merge to your settings
3. Add the below code to your settings ( i had added to my own settings.xml )
you can add in settings.apk/res/xml/Dispaly_settings.xml

Code: 
		<com.android.settings.cyanogenmod.SystemSettingSwitchPreference android:title="3Dot Menu" android:key="dot_menu_show" android:defaultValue="0" android:summaryOn="Shown" android:summaryOff="Hidden" />

and then compile/sign and replace your settings


OR
Try download this ROM Control application (View attachment 3616872 ) where you can Easily control
All you is just install and have fun

You can also do this on a single app level if for example an app shows the legacy 3 dots menu but with no actual use for it when running on Android 3.0+
All you have to do is in the app manifest under sdkInfo set targetSdkVersion to 14 and minSdkVersion to a minimum of 11 and the button will be gone ;)
