Watchdog pretimeout governors were enabled from the default governor
selection using "select". As a result, the default governor was always
built into the kernel, even if no watchdog driver was loaded. By using
"depends on" instead of "select", we are in better control, and the
governors can all be built as modules. At the same time, set the default
configuration option for pretimeout governors to match WATCHDOG_CORE
(meaning all pretimeout governors are by default enabled if pretimeout
support is enabled).

The practical impact of this change is minimal. Previously, selecting
a default governor automatically enabled that governor. Now, a default
governor can only be selected if that governor has been enabled.
Consequently, the order of governor selection is now reversed: The
governor selection is now first, followed by default governor selection.

Watchdog pretimeout configuration was at the end of the Kconfig
file, after individual watchdog drivers, and thus easy to miss.
Move it right after basic watchdog option declarations.

Under some circumstances it may be desirable to configure
the watchdog core as module. Enable it.

As part of this change, mark pretimeout governors as depending
on the watchdog core. This is necessary to prevent governors
from being built into the kernel if the watchdog core is built
as module.

Most of the NPCM7XX drivers can be built as modules.
The NPCM7XX watchdog driver code supports building it as
module, but its configuration option is set to bool.
Make itr tristate to actually support modular builds.
This improves consistency with other drivers for the
same platform and enables including the driver in multi-
platform configurations.

HPWDT_NMI_DECODING depends on HP_WATCHDOG and should be next to it.
This helps menuconfig identify HPWDT_NMI_DECODING as depending on
HP_WATCHDOG.

BCM_KONA_WDT_DEBUG depends on BCM_KONA_WDT which depends on COMPILE_TEST.
Enabling BCM_KONA_WDT_DEBUG without BCM_KONA_WDT does not make sense,
so drop the COMPILE_TEST dependency from it. This also improves
menuconfig, which now properly associates BCM_KONA_WDT_DEBUG with
BCM_KONA_WDT.
