[PATCH v2 1/6] watchdog/hardlockup: Sort hardlockup detector related config values a logical way

There are four possible variants of hardlockup detectors:

+ buddy: available when SMP is set.

+ perf: available when HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF is set.

+ arch-specific: available when HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH is set.

+ sparc64 special variant: available when HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG is set
and HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH is not set.

Only one hardlockup detector can be compiled in. The selection is done
using quite complex dependencies between several CONFIG variables.
The following patches will try to make it more straightforward.

As a first step, reorder the definitions of the various CONFIG variables.
The logical order is:

1. HAVE_* variables define available variants. They are typically
defined in the arch/ config files.

2. HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR y/n variable defines whether the hardlockup
detector is enabled at all.

3. HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PREFER_BUDDY y/n variable defines whether
the buddy detector should be preferred over the perf one.
Note that the arch specific variants are always preferred when
available.

4. HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF/BUDDY variables define whether the given
detector is enabled in the end.

5. HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_NON_ARCH and HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_NON_ARCH
are temporary variables that are going to be removed in
a followup patch.

This is a preparation step for further cleanup. It will change the logic
without shuffling the definitions.

This change temporary breaks the C-like ordering where the variables are
declared or defined before they are used. It is not really needed for
Kconfig. Also the following patches will rework the logic so that
the ordering will be C-like in the end.

The patch just shuffles the definitions. It should not change the existing
behavior.
