util/kconfig/Makefile: Add savedefconfig target
Add a savedefconfig target and the help for it to the kconfig
makefile.
The main advantage I found for using defconfigs instead of the full
.config is that they require less maintenence, so long as reasonable
default values are set when adding new config options. When the
defconfig is expanded, it will use default values for all options not
saved in the defconfig. This cuts the size of a saved config from
500ish lines to roughly 20 lines.
savedefconfig was added to the linux kernel in commit id
7cf3d73b4360e91b14326632ab1aeda4cb26308d
