[Introduction]

The motivation of this work is to move the compiler option tests to
Kconfig from Makefile.  A number of kernel features require the
compiler support.  Enabling such features blindly in Kconfig ends up
with a lot of nasty build-time testing in Makefiles.  If a chosen
feature turns out unsupported by the compiler, what the build system
can do is either to disable it (silently!) or to forcibly break the
build, despite Kconfig has let the user to enable it.

[Major Changes in V3]

This version looks more like Make.

  - Use = operator instead of 'macro' keyword
    to define a user-defined function.

  - 'Recursively expanded variable' is implemented as a side-effect.
     A variable is a function with zero argument.

  - Support simply expanded variable which is defined by := operator

  - Support += operator.
    Probably, this feature will be useful to accumulate compiler flags.
    At least, Clang needs some prerequisite flags such as triplet
    to test other compiler flags.

  - Support $(info ...) and $(warning ...) built-in functions,
    which were useful while I was debugging this.

  - Add documentation

  - Add unit tests

  - Collect helpers to scripts/Kconfig.include

[TODO items]

I have not been able to finish this.  Maybe aiming for v4.18-rc1.

  - The text expansion should be able to defer argument expansion.
    This is necessary if we want to implement $(if ...) built-in function.

  - Error out recursive expansion of itself.
    For example,
        X = $(X)
    refers itself.
    If referenced, the expansion continues eternally.  This must be terminated.

  - More compatible behavior?
    Kconfig works mostly like Make, but there are naive cases
    where the behavior is different.
