I think people might be reading differences into 'if' and 'depends on'
that aren't there, like maybe 'if' being needed to "hide" a symbol,
while 'depends on' just adds a dependency.
There are no differences between 'if' and 'depends on'. 'if' is just a
shorthand for 'depends on'. They work the same when it comes to creating
implicit menus too.
The way symbols get "hidden" is through their dependencies not being
satisfied ('if'/'depends on' get copied up as a dependency on the
prompt).
Since 'if' and 'depends on' are the same, an 'if' with just a single
symbol in it can be replaced with a 'depends on'. IMO, it's best to
avoid 'if' there as a style choice too, because it confuses people into
thinking there's deep Kconfig magic going on that requires 'if'.
Going for 'depends on' can also remove some nested 'if's, which
generates nicer symbol information and docs, because nested 'if's really
are so simple/dumb that they just add the dependencies from both 'if's
to all symbols within.
Replace a bunch of single-symbol 'if's with 'depends on' to despam the
Kconfig files a bit and make it clearer how things work. Also do some
other minor related dependency refactoring.
The replacement isn't complete. Will fix up the rest later. Splitting it
a bit to make it more manageable.
(Everything above is true for choices, menus, and comments as well.)
Detected by tweaking the Kconfiglib parsing code. It's impossible to
detect after parsing, because 'if' turns into 'depends on'.

Use this short header style in all Kconfig files:
# <description>
# <copyright>
# <license>
...
Also change all <description>s from
# Kconfig[.extension] - Foo-related options
to just
# Foo-related options
It's clear enough that it's about Kconfig.
The <description> cleanup was done with this command, along with some
manual cleanup (big letter at the start, etc.)

Unused after commit a76814bfb6 ("net: Convert core IP stack to use log
levels").

Instead of one global log level option and one on/off boolean
config option / module, this commit creates one log level option
for each module. This simplifies the logging as it is now possible
to enable different level of debugging output for each network
module individually.
The commit also converts the code to use the new logger
instead of the old sys_log.

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.
Remove some 'default ""' properties on string symbols too.
Also make definitions more consistent by converting some
config FOO
<type>
prompt "foo"
definitions to a shorter form:
config FOO
<type> "foo"
This shorthand works for int/hex/string symbols too, not just for bool
symbols.

The subsys/net/ directory is more logical place for L2 code instead
of ip/ directory. No functionality changes by this commit.
