mconf/nconf: mark empty menus/menuconfigs different from non-empty ones

Submenus are sometimes empty and it would be nice if there is
something that notifies us that we should not expect any content
_before_ we enter a submenu.

A new function menu_is_empty() was introduced and empty menus and
menuconfigs are now marked by "----" as opposed to non-empty ones that
are marked by "--->".

This scheme was suggested by "Yann E. MORIN" <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>.

kconfig/lxdialog: handle newline characters in print_autowrap()

When exiting menuconfig with unsaved changes, a dialog like
the following is shown:

Do you wish to save your new configuration ? <ESC><ESC>
to continue.

The author of the dialog text specified a newline after the '?',
and probably expected it to be processed, so let print_autowrap()
handle newlines propperly.

Also, reword that dialog's second phrase with a real sentence.

Yann had some more ideas on improvements:

"What would be nice is an improvement that scales the choice window to
the number of entries in the choice. If there are a lot of choice
entries, then the choice popup grows in height (but does not overflow
the screen of course). So, instead of seeing only 6 entries, we'd see
as much as possible in the current screen.

Ditto for the width: the popup adapts to the longest prompt (but does
not overflow the screen either, of course), so prompts are not
truncated."

NOTE: This patch requires [1].

MCA: delete all remaining traces of microchannel bus support.

Hardware with MCA bus is limited to 386 and 486 class machines
that are now 20+ years old and typically with less than 32MB
of memory. A quick search on the internet, and you see that
even the MCA hobbyist/enthusiast community has lost interest
in the early 2000 era and never really even moved ahead from
the 2.4 kernels to the 2.6 series.

This deletes anything remaining related to CONFIG_MCA from core
kernel code and from the x86 architecture. There is no point in
carrying this any further into the future.

One complication to watch for is inadvertently scooping up
stuff relating to machine check, since there is overlap in
the TLA name space (e.g. arch/x86/boot/mca.c).
