This would makes all ash options indented inside "ash" in menuconfig.
It appears that menuconfig has a limit at tracking multiple dependency
lines like this (it looks like a "diamond problem" but I'm not sure if
it is):
---ASH <----------
/ \ ASH_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
!NOMMU <-*----SH_IS_ASH <----[OR] <--ASH_INTERNAL_GLOB
\ / ASH_RANDOM_SUPPORT
---BASH_IS_ASH <-- [...]
The kconfig-language document [1] states that:
> If a menu entry somehow depends on the previous entry, it can be
> made a submenu of it. First, the previous (parent) symbol must be
> part of the dependency list and then one of these two conditions
> must be true:
> - the child entry must become invisible, if the parent is set to 'n'
[BusyBox ash used to satisfy this, but no longer does]
> - the child entry must only be visible, if the parent is visible
[BusyBox ash configs actually satisfy this, but because of
"diamond" above this might not be easily detected]
So I found out a direct workaround: by making ash options explicitly
depend on !NOMMU, we can tell menuconfig that rule 2 above is satisfied
without any more tracking.
---------------------
/ \
!NOMMU <-*-----ASH <-------- \
\ \ \ ASH_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
*---SH_IS_ASH <---[OR]-[AND] <--ASH_INTERNAL_GLOB
\ / ASH_RANDOM_SUPPORT
--BASH_IS_ASH <- [...]
So all ash options would now be indented under "ash".

Mention the behavior if user selects CONFIG_SH_IS_ASH but not
CONFIG_ASH. We will be explicit that invocations like "busybox ash"
will not work for such configuration.
Also clarify help text of CONFIG_BASH_IS_* that bash compatibility in
ash is not complete. (It shouldn't be anyway - ash can't support every
bash quirk out there.)

The same can be done for msh, but we are probably better off just deleting it
in a next versio or two.

On user request.
I thought enabling/disabling them all together is more consistent.
Evidently, some people do want them to be separately selectable.
