Some users have been having a hard time finding the hidden
menus. A typically case are camera sensor drivers
(e.g IMX219, OV5645, etc), which are common on embedded
platforms and not really "ancillary" devices.
The problem with MEDIA_SUBDRV_AUTOSELECT seems to be related
to the fact that it uses the "visible" syntax to hide
the menus.
This is not obvious and it normally takes some time to
figure out.
To fix the problem, add a comment on each of hidden menus,
which should clarify what option is causing menus to be hidden.

Embedded systems often connect to sensors or other multimedia
subdevices directly. Currently, to be able to select such a
subdevice (e.g. CONFIG_VIDEO_OV5640) disabling of the auto-
select config option is needed (CONFIG_MEDIA_SUBDRV_AUTOSELECT).
This is inconvenient as the ancillary drivers for a particular
device then need to be selected manually.
Allow to select drivers manually while keeping the auto-select
feature in case EXPERT (selected by EMBEDDED) is enabled.

Checkpatch wants to use 'help' instead of '---help---':
WARNING: prefer 'help' over '---help---' for new help texts
Let's change it globally at the media subsystem, as otherwise people
would keep using the old way.

The SPI driver looked a bit lonely in the config menu, and it didn't
support the autoselect. Shift things around a bit so it looks more logical.
