[PATCH 0/2] kconfig/mconf: propagate jumping function in search result view

[changbin.du]

From: Changbin Du <changbin.du@intel.com>

While I am searching something in menuconfig, I hope if I can jump to interested
items directly. I even try to add this feature. When I check the code just found 
it has already been there but not documented. So why let more developers know it?

It would be even better and discoverable if this could be turned into a
dialog menu, so that you could navigate the search results using arrow
keys and hit enter to choose. But this is already an improvement.

Yann?

I'd like to have both of these merged, I think they are worthwhile and
simple additions, and they look good to me.
