Subject: Make 8.0.0 release

New features:

  - 2433deb ("Add Kconfig preprocessor") implements a new Kconfig
    preprocessor, documented in
    https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-macro-language.txt.
    It is required to parse the linux-next Kconfigs now, and will appear
    in Linux 4.18.

    'option env=...' symbols and the $FOO syntax for expanding
    environment variables will be supported for backwards compatibility
    for a while. Consider switching to $(FOO) though, which is the new
    syntax (and removing 'option env=...' symbols).

Changed behavior:

  - c19fc11 ("Drop some compatibility and tighten up lexing") makes
    Kconfiglib flag invalid characters in Kconfig files as a syntax
    error in all context. They were previously ignored in some places
    for compatibility with old sloppy versions of the C tools.

    The C tools fixed it with commit c2264564 ("kconfig: warn of
    unhandled characters in Kconfig commands") in July 2015. Older
    kernels might require fixing up the Kconfig files a bit now.

New warnings:

  - 4200e25 ("Generalize select-with-unsatisfied-deps warning") makes
    the select-with-unsatisfied-dependencies warning trigger when a
    symbol with m-valued direct dependencies is y-selected.
