Hi there!

This series attempts to make the .config file format make more sense.
Currently menuconfig blocks look exactly like regular configs while
comment blocks look almost exactly like menu blocks.

The first patch makes menuconfig blocks look the same as menu blocks.

The second makes comment blocks look different than menu blocks.

The format for comment blocks in the second patch is a suggestion. I
realize some people will think the '###' prefix is distasteful. I'm open
to other options as well, I just couldn't think of a better option that
starts with '#', looks different from a menu and can't be confused with
a disabled config.

kconfig: Show menuconfigs as menus in the .config file
kconfig: Make comments look different than menus in .config
