If specified, the directive must be placed at the top of the Kconfig file.

We need to change the grammar to make the mainmenu directive set the
`rootmenu' prompt. This reflect how menu_add_prompt() works internally, ie.
set the prompt of the `current_entry', pointing originally to `rootmenu'.

Add the possibility to import a value from the environment into kconfig
via the option syntax. Beside flexibility this has the advantage
providing proper dependencies.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
