[Buildroot] [PATCH 2/2] help: relocate help messages specific to one package

Use $LOCAL_HELP feature in order to integrate help messages specific
to one package (linux-menuconfig, etc...) package they are
related.

It would be possible to do it using kconfig framework, but I was not
sure it is necessary to document kconfig targets systematicaly.
