There was no great reason for this function to be a global function to
begin with. Having it as a member function simplifies callers.
load_allconfig() is a bit special in that it fails with sys.exit(),
which is helpful for tools, but that probably doesn't influence where it
belongs.
Keep the global function for backwards compatibility. A deprecation
warning might be added at some point.

Stuff like this is not the pinnacle of helpful design, and hides that
the commands actually have long help texts (that can be viewed with
pydoc):
$ ./menuconfig.py --help
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '--help'
Fix it by converting standard_kconfig() to argparse, and add a
'description' argument to it for the command-specific help text. --help
now shows the same help text shown by pydoc, and some other error
messages are improved as well.
Also fix some copy-paste errors and outdated paths in the help texts for
the all*config commands.

Hardcoding load_config() and write_(min_)config() to write any message
to stdout is awkward, because it means that the message can't be easily
reused when stdout is the wrong place to write it to (e.g. in
menuconfig/guiconfig). This gets extra bad now that there's also the "No
change to ..." message.
Modify load_config() and write_(min_)config() to return the message as a
string instead, and have them always return a message, instead of just
when 'filename' is None and verbose=True. This makes things flexible and
straightforward.
Use the new behavior in menuconfig.py and guiconfig.py. They now show
"No change to ..." when saving a file doesn't modify it.
Tools that want to write messages to stdout should now do
print(kconf.load_config()) / print(kconf.write_config()).
There's no clean way to preserve perfect backwards compatibility here,
but keep accepting the 'verbose' argument and print a deprecation
warning if a value is ever passed for it. That way, scripts will keep
running, though possibly with less output on stdout.
This changes the meaning of the load_config() return value as well,
though I suspect it was only ever used by the menuconfig/guiconfig
interfaces.
The new behavior applies for kconfiglib.VERSION >= (12, 0, 0).

This makes running pydoc(3) on the utilities helpful.
Reuse the module docstring for the --help text for utilities that use
argparse.
Also fix some copy-paste errors in the all*config.py descriptions and
clean up the language a bit.
Piggyback removal of an optimization in allmodconfig.py that's pretty
irrelevant now.

Also remove some no longer used imports.

Make the previously obligatory 'filename' argument to load_config() and
write_config() default to None, and have that implement the behavior
you'd usually want: read/write either KCONFIG_CONFIG or ".config" if
unset, and read the 'option defconfig_list' configuration file if
KCONFIG_CONFIG/".config" doesn't exist.
For load_config(), filename=None also allows the configuration file to
be missing without raising an error. load_config() returns True if a
local configuration file was loaded, which is useful to check in the
menuconfig (if no local configuration file exists, we always want to
prompt for saving the configuration when exiting).
Also add a 'verbose' argument (default True) to load_config() and
read_config() that makes them print which files were read/written in
filename=None mode.
Also generalize olddefconfig.py and oldconfig.py to not require there to
already be a local configuration file. This was a bit silly for
olddefconfig.py in particular.
Remove the examples/defconfig.py script. It's a duplicate of
olddefconfig.py.

This allows some symbol values to be forced while running
all{def,no,yes,mod}config.py. See Documentation/kbuild/kconfig.txt in
the Linux kernel.
Add a helper function load_allconfig() to Kconfiglib to avoid code
duplication in the tools.
Also add functions for enabling/disabling the warning that's generated
when a symbol is assigned multiple times in a (set of) .config files and
the values differ. It should be disabled when merging the
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG configuration file. Previously, only the warning
generated when the assigned values are identical could be disabled.
Disable all warnings related to assigning a symbol multiple times in
examples/merge_config.py as well.

This environment variable was inherited from the C tools.
kconfiglib.standard_config_filename() looks at it.

Will be packaged.
Piggyback test suite cleanups to make test names match the name of the
script being tested.
