make defconfig generated a lot of output
then noone actually read.
Use conf_set_all_new_symbols() to generate the default
configuration and avoid the chatty output.

A typical run now looks like this:
$ make  defconfig
*** Default configuration is based on 'i386_defconfig'
arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig:13:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol SEMAPHORE_SLEEPERS
arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig:176:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol PREEMPT_BKL
...
arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig:1386:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol INSTRUMENTATION
$

As an added benefit we now clearly see the warnings generated
in the start of the process.

<title>kconfig: make oldconfig is now less chatty</title>

<id>cd9140e1e73a31fd45f1fd4585260643a2f9ab1d</id>
<content type='text'>
Previously when running "make oldconfig" we saw all the propmt lines
from kconfig and noone actully read this.

With this patch the user will only see output if there is new symbols.
This will be seen as "make oldconfig" runs which does not generate any output.

A typical run now looks like this:

$ make oldconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf -o arch/x86/Kconfig
$

If a new symbol is found then we restart the config process like this:
$ make oldconfig
scripts/kconfig/conf -o arch/x86/Kconfig
*
* Restart config...
*
*
* General setup
*
Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers (EXPERIMENTAL) [Y/n/?] y
Local version - append to kernel release (LOCALVERSION) []
...

The bahaviour is similar to what we know when running the implicit
oldconfig target "make silentoldconfig".
"make silentoldconfig" are run as part of the kernel build process
if the configuration has changed.

Drop the chatty mode when we generate the all*config, randconfig
configurations.
Ths speeds up the process considerably and noone looked
at the output anyway.
This patch uses the conf_set_all_new_symbols() function
just added to kconfig.

1) The field 'len' of the 'gstr' structure seems to track the size of the memory
already allocated for the "growable string". So the value of this field should be
the same as the 'malloc()' just above, shouldn't it ?

<title>kconfig: add named choice group</title>

As choice dependency are now fully checked, it's quite easy to add support
for named choices. This lifts the restriction that a choice value can only
appear once, although it still has to be within the same group,
but multiple choices can be joined by giving them a name.
While at it I cleaned up a little the choice type logic to simplify it a
bit.

Properly check the dependency of choices as a group.
Also fix that sym_check_deps() correctly terminates the dependency loop
error check (otherwise it would continue printing the dependency chain).
