[PATCH 0/4] kconfig: improve input validation for numeric options

[Julian Braha]

This series improves checks for invalid values of 'int' and 'hex' config
options in the Kconfig interpreter.

Tests are added for all new warnings and errors.

Patch 1/4 promotes an existing warning to an error, for attempting to use
a non-numeric option to set a numeric option's value. This warning did not
have a test, but one is added with the promotion to error.

Patch 2/4 adds a check that the constant values for numerics are within
the bounds of the type (64-bit signed integer for 'int', and 64-bit
unsigned integer for 'hex'). This prevents silent failures, for example in
comparisons.

Patch 3/4 adds a check that 'int' and 'hex' options aren't used to set
each other's values. Since the values are naively reused from their
internal string representations, this currently also leads to later silent
failures. 

Finally, patch 4/4 rejects out-of-bounds numeric values from the Kconfig
frontends and adds a warning upon reading in an existing .config file
with one of these values. In the future, this warning should be promoted
to an error.
