[NET]: move config options out to individual protocols
Move the protocol specific config options out to the specific protocols. With this change net/Kconfig now starts to become readable and serve as a good basis for further re-structuring. The menu structure is left almost intact, except that indention is fixed in most cases. Most visible are the INET changes where several "depends on INET" are replaced with a single ifdef INET / endif pair. Several new files were created to accomplish this change - they are small but serve the purpose that config options are now distributed out where they belongs.

+ depends on EXPERIMENTAL
+ ---help---
+ Link Access Procedure, Balanced (LAPB) is the data link layer (i.e.
+ the lower) part of the X.25 protocol. It offers a reliable
+ connection service to exchange data frames with one other host, and
+ it is used to transport higher level protocols (mostly X.25 Packet
+ Layer, the higher part of X.25, but others are possible as well).
+ Usually, LAPB is used with specialized X.21 network cards, but Linux
+ currently supports LAPB only over Ethernet connections. If you want
+ to use LAPB connections over Ethernet, say Y here and to "LAPB over
+ Ethernet driver" below. Read
+ <file:Documentation/networking/lapb-module.txt> for technical
+ details.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
+ module will be called lapb. If unsure, say N.
