[RFC PATCH 1/3] kernel/liveupdate: make KEXEC_HANDOVER depend on KEXEC_FILE instead of selecting it

An upcoming patch makes ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC_HANDOVER depend on
CRASH_DUMP on powerpc:

    config ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC_HANDOVER
    	def_bool y
    	depends on PPC64
    	depends on !CRASH_DUMP

That triggers a recursive dependency error:

    error: recursive dependency detected!
    	symbol KEXEC_HANDOVER depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC_HANDOVER
    	symbol ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC_HANDOVER depends on CRASH_DUMP
    	symbol CRASH_DUMP depends on KEXEC_CORE
    	symbol KEXEC_CORE is selected by KEXEC_FILE
    	symbol KEXEC_FILE is selected by KEXEC_HANDOVER

KEXEC_HANDOVER and KEXEC_CORE end up depending on each other when
ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC_HANDOVER depends on CRASH_DUMP. This creates a
recursive Kconfig dependency.

Change KEXEC_FILE from select to depends on to break this cycle.
This means KEXEC_FILE must be enabled explicitly instead of being
enabled automatically by KEXEC_HANDOVER.

Keep this change until the powerpc-specific KHO and CRASH_DUMP
dependency is resolved.
