Kconfig: Add a new DISTRO_DEFAULTS Kconfig option
DISTRO_DEFAULTS is intended to mirror / replace include/config_distro_defaults.h. The intend is for boards which include this file to select this from their Kconfig files and when moving setting to Kconfig which are #define-ed in config_distro_defaults.h to select this from DISTRO_DEFAULTS so that boards which have selected DISTRO_DEFAULTS will keep the same configuration as before without needing any defconfig file changes. The initial list of selected things matches all settings recently removed from config_distro_defaults.h because they have been converted to Kconfig, with the exception of CMD_ELF and CMD_NET, which have a default of y, if the default of these ever changes they should be selected by DISTRO_DEFAULTS too. For testing and example purposes this commit also converts ARCH_SUNXI to use DISTRO_DEFAULT instead of selecting everything it needs itself. Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com>

Enabling the distro options
---------------------------
+In your board's defconfig, enable the DISTRO_DEFAULTS option by adding
+a line with "CONFIG_DISTRO_DEFAULTS=y". If you want to enable this
+from Kconfig itself, for e.g. all boards using a specific SoC then
+add a "default y if ARCH_FOO" to the DISTRO_DEFAULTS section of
+the Kconfig file in the root of the u-boot sources.

In your board configuration file, include the following:
