kconfig: Warn if choice default is not in choice

This will catch mistakes like in the following real-world example, where
a "CONFIG_" prefix snuck in, making an undefined symbol the default:

	choice
		prompt "Compiler optimization level"
		default CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE

	config CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE
		...

	config CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
		...

	endchoice

This now prints the following warning:

	init/Kconfig:1036:warning: choice default symbol 'CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE' is not contained in the choice

Cases where the default symbol belongs to the wrong choice are also
detected.

(The mistake is harmless here: Since the default symbol is not visible,
the choice falls back on using the first visible symbol as the default,
which is CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE, as intended.)

Discovered while playing around with Kconfiglib
(https://github.com/ulfalizer/Kconfiglib

).
