docs: kbuild: Document search jump feature 



Menuconfig has a feature where you can "press the key in the (#) prefix
to jump directly to that location. You will be returned to the current
search results after exiting this new menu."

This feature is poorly documented,
so add it to the kconfig.rst documentation.
