Series refactor Kconfig to consolidate KEXEC and CRASH options | expand

The kexec and crash kernel options are provided in the common
kernel/Kconfig.kexec. Utilize the common options and provide
the ARCH_SUPPORTS_ and ARCH_SELECTS_ entries to recreate the
equivalent set of KEXEC and CRASH options.

I find this diff a little hard to follow (since the other half off the
change is in another patch), so it may be me missing something, but are
you sure?

This looks like a change to me. Previously, only KEXEC_PURGATORY
required these crypto options to be like so, but now KEXEC_FILE needs
them too.

What am I missing?

Cheers,
Conor.

Conor,
Thanks for looking at this! Indeed I erroneously applied the CRYPTO=y && CRYPTO_SHA256=y
to KEXEC_FILE rather than PURGATORY. I will correct for v4!
Thanks!
