I would much rather see include/config/auto.conf reset all configuration
variables to match what kconfig computed. I.e. use 'undefine CONFIG_FOO'
instead of '# CONFIG_FOO is not set'. Additionally print this for any
CONFIG_* variable found in the environment, even if the symbol is not
visible in the current configuration. The include/config/auto.conf file
is only used internally, so it should be safe to change the format.
