firmware_loader: enhance Kconfig documentation over FW_LOADER If you try to read FW_LOADER today it speaks of old riddles and unless you have been following development closely you will lose track of what is what. Even the documentation for PREVENT_FIRMWARE_BUILD is a bit fuzzy and how it fits into this big picture. Give the FW_LOADER kconfig documentation some love with more up to date developments and recommendations. While at it, wrap the FW_LOADER code into its own menu to compartmentalize and make it clearer which components really are part of the FW_LOADER. This should also make it easier to later move these kconfig entries into the firmware_loader/ directory later. This also now recommends using firmwared [0] for folks left needing a uevent handler in userspace for the sysfs firmware fallback mechanis given udev's uevent firmware mechanism was ripped out a while ago.
