Kbuild updates for v4.18 (2nd)

- fix some bugs introduced by the recent Kconfig syntax extension
 
  - add some symbols about compiler information in Kconfig, such as
    CC_IS_GCC, CC_IS_CLANG, GCC_VERSION, etc.
 
  - test compiler capability for the stack protector in Kconfig, and
    clean-up Makefile
 
  - test compiler capability for GCC-plugins in Kconfig, and clean-up
    Makefile
 
  - allow to enable GCC-plugins for COMPILE_TEST
 
  - test compiler capability for KCOV in Kconfig and correct dependency
 
  - remove auto-detect mode of the GCOV format, which is now more nicely
    handled in Kconfig
 
  - test compiler capability for mprofile-kernel on PowerPC, and
    clean-up Makefile
 
  - misc cleanups
