Ulf Magnusson 6686efb838 kconfiglib/menuconfig: Add functionality and improve symbol information
Update Kconfiglib and menuconfig to upstream revision 6aea8d06b637e.

Kconfiglib changes:

 - Kconfig files are now looked up just relative to $srctree (if set).
   Previously, each source'd Kconfig file was also looked up in the
   current directory, and Kconfig files there could override Kconfig
   files in $srctree. This is what the C tools do.

   I'm pretty sure that behavior was a bug in the C tools all along, and
   only meant for .config files. It caused problems (and an ugly
   workaround) for the undefined Kconfig symbol CI check in an external
   project.

   The new behavior also saves a bunch of open()'s, though it's probably
   not noticeable.

 - Setting the KCONFIG_STRICT environment variable to 'y' now makes
   Kconfiglib itself warn for references to undefined symbols. This
   isn't safe in general, as some projects use multiple Kconfig trees
   with shared Kconfig files (e.g. the Linux kernel).

   This will be used to simplify the undefined Kconfig symbol CI check.

 - It's now possible to customize how symbols and choices are printed
   within expressions.

   This will be used to make the RST link generation in genrest.py less
   hacky.

 - Instead of having 'gsource', a plain 'source' is now globbing, and
   requires at least one match. There's also 'osource', for when it's
   okay for a glob pattern to match no files.

   'gsource' had the design flaw that there was no way to require at
   least one file to match. I plan on replacing all 'gsource' statements
   with plain 'source's later, but 'gsource' is still supported for
   backwards compatibility.

 - def_int, def_hex, and def_string are now available as a Kconfig
   extensions, analogous to def_bool (set type and add default).

 - Misc. internal cleanup.

menuconfig changes:

 - Boolean value hints are no longer shown to the right of defaults in
   the symbol information for int/hex symbols. Stuff like
   '- 74 (value: "n")' wasn't helpful, and looked confusing.

 - Symbol information has been made more compact in general, e.g. by
   skipping value hints where they aren't helpful
   ('FOO(=y)' instead of 'FOO(=y) (=y)'), and by shortening stuff like
   '(value: "y")' to just '(=y)'.

 - Misc. internal cleanup.
