 Kconfig updates for v4.18
 
 Kconfig now supports new functionality to perform textual substitution.
 It has been a while since Linus suggested to move compiler option tests
 from makefiles to Kconfig. Finally, here it is. The implementation has
 been generalized into a Make-like macro language. Some built-in functions
 such as 'shell' are provided. Variables and user-defined functions are
 also supported so that 'cc-option', 'ld-option', etc. are implemented as
 macros.
 
 Summary:
 
 - refactor package checks for building {m,n,q,g}conf
 
 - remove unused/unmaintained localization support
 
 - remove Kbuild cache
 
 - drop CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE support
 
 - replace 'option env=' with direct variable expansion
 
 - add built-in functions such as 'shell'
 
 - support variables and user-defined functions
 
 - add helper macros as as 'cc-option'
 
 - add unit tests and a document of the new macro language
 
 - add 'testconfig' to help
 
 - fix warnings from GCC 8.1
