util/kconfig/README.md: Add notes about adding a new quilt patch

The patches for kconfig need to be in a format compatible with the quilt
tool, and usually also contain a header with some additional info like
the git commit. This header is in the same format as patches produced by
`git format-patch`, but the diff style git uses is incompatible with
quilt and there does not seem to be a straightforward way to format the
diff section to work.

Add some documentation for a method I found to go from a git commit to a
quilt compatible patch with git headers.
