Ariel Marcovitch d05377e184 kconfig: Create links to main menu items in search
When one searches for a main menu item, links aren't created for it like
with the rest of the symbols.

This happens because we trace the item until we get to the rootmenu, but
we don't include it in the path of the item. The rationale was probably
that we don't want to show the main menu in the path of all items,
because it is redundant.

However, when an item has only the rootmenu in its path it should be
included, because this way the user can jump to its location.

Add a 'Main menu' entry in the 'Location:' section for the kconfig
items.

This makes the 'if (i > 0)' superfluous because each item with prompt
will have at least one menu in its path.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
