Some extensions to the multi-level interrupt controller are required
to support SoCs with more than four level 2 interrupt "aggregators".
Extend existing support to allow at most 8 level 2 or level 3
aggregators. Use Kconfig macro templates to cut down on boilerplate.
Try to clarify some aspects of the Kconfig help while we're at it, and
change the type of options which count things or are table offsets
from "hex" to "int", so that the generated .config is easier to read.
Finally, make some improvements to gen_isr_tables.py while we are
here. In particular, move some assignments around to cut down on
duplicated work, don't check for symbols we know must exist, and
improve the debug logging output's readability.

Bool symbols implicitly default to 'n'.
A 'default n' can make sense e.g. in a Kconfig.defconfig file, if you
want to override a 'default y' on the base definition of the symbol. It
isn't used like that on any of these symbols though, and is
inconsistent.
This will make the auto-generated Kconfig documentation have "No
defaults. Implicitly defaults to n." as well, which is clearer than
'default n if ...'

In a scenario where a platform harbours multiple interrupts to the
extent the core cannot support it, an interrupt controller is added
as an additional level of interrupt. It typically combines several
sources of interrupt into one line that is then routed to the parent
controller.
