kconfig: set SYMBOL_AUTO to the symbol marked with defconfig_list

The 'defconfig_list' is a weird attribute.  If the '.config' is
missing, conf_read_simple() iterates over all visible defaults,
then it uses the first one for which fopen() succeeds.

config DEFCONFIG_LIST
	string
	depends on !UML
	option defconfig_list
	default "/lib/modules/$UNAME_RELEASE/.config"
	default "/etc/kernel-config"
	default "/boot/config-$UNAME_RELEASE"
	default "$ARCH_DEFCONFIG"
	default "arch/$ARCH/defconfig"

However, like other symbols, the first visible default is always
written out to the .config file.  This might be different from what
has been actually used.

For example, on my machine, the third one "/boot/config-$UNAME_RELEASE"
is opened, like follows:

  $ rm .config
  $ make oldconfig 2>/dev/null
  scripts/kconfig/conf  --oldconfig Kconfig
  #
  # using defaults found in /boot/config-4.4.0-112-generic
  #
  *
  * Restart config...
  *
  *
  * IRQ subsystem
  *
  Expose irq internals in debugfs (GENERIC_IRQ_DEBUGFS) [N/y/?] (NEW)

However, the resulted .config file contains the first one since it is
visible:

  $ grep CONFIG_DEFCONFIG_LIST .config
  CONFIG_DEFCONFIG_LIST="/lib/modules/$UNAME_RELEASE/.config"

In order to stop confusing people, prevent this CONFIG option from
being written to the .config file.
