Pretty long overdue.

Until now, dependency loops have raised a hard-to-debug Python
RecursionError during evaluation. A Kconfiglib exception is raised now
instead, with a message that lists all the items in the loop.

See the comment at the start of _check_dep_loop_sym() for an overview of
the algorithm. At a high level, it's loop detection in a directed graph
by keeping track of unvisited/visited nodes during depth-first search.
(A third "visited, known to not be in a dependency loop" state is used
as well.)

Choices complicate things, as they're inherently loopy: The choice
depends on the choice symbols and vice versa, and the choice symbols in
a sense all depend on each other.

Add the choice-to-choice-symbol dependencies separately after dependency
loop detection, so that there's just the choice-symbol-to-choice
dependencies to deal with. It simplifies things, as it makes it possible
to tell dependencies from 'prompt' and 'default' conditions on the
choice from choice symbol dependencies.

Do some flag shenanigans to prevent the choice from being "re-entered"
while looping through the choice symbols. Maybe this could be cleaned up
a bit somehow...

Example exception message:
