[gentoo-dev] [PATCH 1/2] kernel-build.eclass: Apply savedconfig on top of merged configs

["Michał Górny" <mgorny@gentoo.org>]

Move applying savedconfig from src_configure() into
kernel-build_merge_configs(), in order to make it possible to override
saved config options.  Previously, the saved config would
unconditionally overwrite everything, which could be between
inconvenient and plain broken (particularly if savedconfig contained
signing key paths referring to ${T}).

The new logic applies saved config via merge method, on top
of the default config along with ebuild and eclass overrides.  However,
MODULES_SIGN_KEY* and user config snippets do override saved config
for convenience.

Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/938130
