kconfig: Clean up modules handling and fix crash 

Kconfig currently doesn't handle 'm' appearing in a Kconfig file before
the modules symbol is defined (the symbol with 'option modules'). The
problem is the following code, which runs during parsing:

	/* change 'm' into 'm' && MODULES */
	if (e->left.sym == &symbol_mod)
		return expr_alloc_and(e, expr_alloc_symbol(modules_sym));

If the modules symbol has not yet been defined, modules_sym is NULL,
giving an invalid expression.

Here is a test file where both BEFORE_1 and BEFORE_2 trigger a segfault.
If the modules symbol is removed, all symbols trigger segfaults.

	config BEFORE_1
		def_tristate y if m

	if m
	config BEFORE_2
		def_tristate y
	endif

	config MODULES
		def_bool y
		option modules

	config AFTER_1
		def_tristate y if m

	if m
	config AFTER_2
		def_tristate y
	endif

Fix the issue by rewriting 'm' in menu_finalize() instead. This function
runs after parsing and is the proper place to do it. The following
existing code in conf_parse() in zconf.y ensures that the modules symbol
exists at that point:

	if (!modules_sym)
		modules_sym = sym_find( "n" );

	...

	menu_finalize(&rootmenu);

The following tests were done to ensure no functional changes for
configurations that don't reference 'm' before the modules symbol:

	- zconfdump(stdout) was run with ARCH=x86 and ARCH=arm before
	  and after the change and verified to produce identical output.
	  This function prints all symbols, choices, and menus together
	  with their properties and their dependency expressions. A
	  rewritten 'm' appears as 'm && MODULES'.

	  A small annoyance is that the assert(len != 0) in xfwrite()
	  needs to be disabled in order to use zconfdump(), because it
	  chokes on e.g. 'default ""'.

	- The Kconfiglib test suite was run to indirectly verify that
	  alldefconfig, allyesconfig, allnoconfig, and all defconfigs in
	  the kernel still generate the same final .config.

	- Valgrind was used to check for memory errors and (new) memory
	  leaks.
