With the new Kconfig preprocessor (described in
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/kbuild/
kconfig-macro-language.txt), the syntax for expanding environment
variables is $(FOO) rather than $FOO.
$(FOO) is a general preprocessor variable expansion, which falls back to
environment variables if the variable isn't set (like in Make). It can
also be used in prompts, 'comment's, etc.
The old syntax will probably be supported forever in Kconfiglib for
backwards compatibility, but might as well make it consistent now that
people might start using the preprocessor more.

The prefixes might be a leftover from the old 'option env="..."' symbols
(which are no longer needed). Since environment variables can be
referenced directly now, there's no point in having a prefix.

A design flaw of 'gsource' is that there's no way to require at least
one file to match the glob pattern. This could lead to silent errors.
Switch to a new design, where a plain 'source' is globbing and requires
at least one file to match. A separate 'osource' (optional source)
statement is available for cases where it's okay for a pattern (or plain
filename) to not match any files.
'orsource' combines 'osource' and 'rsource' (relative source).
This commit search-replaces 'gsource' with 'source', but backwards
compatibility with 'gsource' is still maintained by making it an alias
for 'osource' (and by making 'grsource' an alias for 'orsource').
The three Kconfig files arch/{nios2,posix,xtensa}/Kconfig source
arch/{nios2,posix,xtensa}/soc/*/Kconfig, which doesn't match any files.
Use 'osource' for those. The soc/*/Kconfig files seem to be for
additional SoC-specific symbols, only none exist yet on those ARCHes.
Also use 'osource' for the source of $ENV_VAR_BOARD_DIR/Kconfig in
boards/Kconfig, which doesn't exist for all boards.

In order to provide a way to control boards/shields compatibility,
provide connector flags.
One should select this flag in Kconfig.board to state connector
compatibility for the board.

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 for any of the removed properties though.

This commit gets rid of the 'option env="ENV_VAR"' bounce symbols.
"$FOO" now expands directly to the value of the environment variable
FOO, instead of to the value of the Kconfig symbol FOO.
This change is likely to soon appear in the C tools as well. Those
'option env' symbols always seemed kinda pointless, and have broken
dependency handling due to forcing symbol evaluation during parsing,
before all the symbols have even been seen.
Compatibility with the C tools could be retained by naming all
'option env' symbols the same as the environment variable they
reference.
This commit also updated the Zephyr documentation to explain the new
behavior. It's relevant for $ZEPHYR_BASE and out-of-tree Kconfig
extensions.
Commit message from Kconfiglib (cbf32e29a130d)
==============================================
Make "$FOO" directly reference the environment variable $FOO in e.g.
'source' statements, instead of the symbol FOO. Use os.path.expandvars()
to expand strings (which preserves "$FOO" as-is if no environment
variable FOO exists).
This gets rid of the 'option env' "bounce" symbols, which are mostly
just spam and are buggy in the C tools (dependencies aren't always
respected, due to parsing and evaluation getting mixed up). The same
change will probably appear soon in the C tools as well.
Keep accepting 'option env' to preserve some backwards compatibility,
but ignore it when expanding strings. For compatibility with the C
tools, bounce symbols will need to be named the same as the environment
variables they reference (which is the case for the Linux kernel).
This is a compatibility break, so the major version will be bumped to 6
at the next release.
The main motivation for adding this now is to allow recording properties
on each MenuNode in a clean way. 'option env' symbols interact badly
with delayed dependency propagation.
Side note: I have a feeling that recording environment variable values
might be redundant to trigger rebuilds if sync_deps() is run at each
compile. It should detect all changes to symbol values due to
environment variables changing value.

Until now, Zephyr has used a patched Kconfiglib that turns 'source' into
a globbing source (by replacing 'source' with 'gsource' at the token
level). There's two problems with this:
- The patch needs to be maintained separately
- Misspelled filenames are silently ignored, as they look like glob
patterns that don't match anything
Fix it as follows:
1. Replace all 'source' statements that use wildcards with 'gsource'
2. Remove the custom Kconfiglib patch so that 'source' no longer globs
The sed pattern '/source.*[*?]/s/source/gsource/' was run over all
Kconfig* files to do the replacement.
source's that use environment variables that might contain glob patterns
were manually changed to gsource.
Building the docs in doc/ is a good test, as doc/Makefile deliberately
sets the environment variables to glob up as many Kconfig files as
possible.

When Kconfiglib was introduced it caused a significant performance
issue. This patch uses pruning to mitigate the performance issue.
The pruning exploits the fact that before the Kconfig database is
parsed we already know what ARCH and BOARD has been selected. So in
theory we could prune away all Kconfig sources that are not related to
the current ARCH or BOARD. In practice, it is only the Kconfig sources
in zephyr/arch/$ARCH and zephyr/board/$ARCH/ that are easy to prune.
Still, that is quite a few Kconfig sources. For qemu_x86 this patch
reduced the number of parsed Kconfig source files from 632 to
272. This pruning resulted in a incremental reconfiguration (time
cmake ..) speedup of 21% (0.56s to 0.46) and a clean build speedup of
4% (Using board qemu_x86 and sample hello_world).
Furthermore, it should be easier to maintain ARCH's and BOARD's
out-of-tree since the user now has a mechanism to redirect where
Kconfig sources are found. But this has not been explored.

The default boolean setting for QEMU_TARGET was incorrectly placed in
the prompt field, so it was showing up as a config option in 'make

Introduce an architecture sorting of boards. This is to allow for
easier maintenance going forward as the number of boards grows. It
will be easier for any scripts to know the board/arch mapping without
having to maintain an explicit list of what boards are associated with
which arch. We can also do things like have architecture maintainers
cover reviews and branches for arch/${ARCH} and boards/${ARCH} going
forward.

This adds a menu to enclose all board Kconfig. So the board
configs do not appear on the top level out of context in
menuconfig. This also reflects the SoC options where these are
under menus for each architecture.

First step for adding the new board layer. Create configurations for the
various boards we support on x86 under boards with the new Kconfig variables
defining them.
The board selection is optional, that means you will be able to run
make menuconfig
and create your own .config and select any SoC.
