This commit imports Kconfig updates from Linux 3.18-rc1.
'kvmconfig' and 'tinyconfig' help message have been commented out
since they are unavailable at least now; in the future perhaps
we can implement 'tinyconfig' to disable most of CONFIG_CMD_* to
create a very small U-Boot image.

Since Linux 3.18-rc1, Kbuild is able to handle multi-objs
dependency correctly, which also allows us futher cleanups
of some makefiles.
This commit imports those commits:
[1] commit c8589d1e9e01 by Masahiro Yamada
kbuild: handle multi-objs dependency appropriately
[2] commit 97e3226e6e98 by Masahiro Yamada
kbuild: handle the dependency of multi-objs hostprogs appropriately
[3] commit 022af62d0190 by Masahiro Yamada
kbuild: refactor script/kconfig/Makefile
[4] commit 221ecca6cafe by Masahiro Yamada
kbuild: remove redundant clean-files from scripts/kconfig/Makefile

This commit enables Kconfig.
Going forward, we use Kconfig for the board configuration.
mkconfig will never be used. Nor will include/config.mk be generated.
Kconfig must be adjusted for U-Boot because our situation is
a little more complicated than Linux Kernel.
We have to generate multiple boot images (Normal, SPL, TPL)
from one source tree.
Each image needs its own configuration input.
Usage:
Run "make <board>_defconfig" to do the board configuration.
It will create the .config file and additionally spl/.config, tpl/.config
if SPL, TPL is enabled, respectively.
You can use "make config", "make menuconfig" etc. to create
a new .config or modify the existing one.
Use "make spl/config", "make spl/menuconfig" etc. for spl/.config
and do likewise for tpl/.config file.
The generic syntax of configuration targets for SPL, TPL is:
<target_image>/<config_command>
Here, <target_image> is either 'spl' or 'tpl'
<config_command> is 'config', 'menuconfig', 'xconfig', etc.
When the configuration is done, run "make".
(Or "make <board>_defconfig all" will do the configuration and build
in one time.)
For futher information of how Kconfig works in U-Boot,
please read the comment block of scripts/multiconfig.py.
By the way, there is another item worth remarking here:
coexistence of Kconfig and board herder files.
Prior to Kconfig, we used C headers to define a set of configs.
We expect a very long term to migrate from C headers to Kconfig.
Two different infractructure must coexist in the interim.
In our former configuration scheme, include/autoconf.mk was generated
for use in makefiles.
It is still generated under include/, spl/include/, tpl/include/ directory
for the Normal, SPL, TPL image, respectively.
