[PATCH 1/2] x86, platform, kconfig: move kvmconfig functionality to a helper

[Josh Triplett]

The new mergeconfig helper makes it easier to add other partial
configurations similar to kvmconfig.

Based on a patch by Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@xxxxxxxx>.
Originally-Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@xxxxxxxx>

Modified to make the helper name more general than just virtualization,
and factor out more of the common file path.

Hopefully the above changelog message makes the origin of this patch
clear; it didn't seem appropriate to keep a Signed-off-by when modifying
the patch, but I wanted to preserve the credit.
