[PATCH v2] [net-next] dibs: Improve DIBS prompts and help texts

[Geert Uytterhoeven]

The Kconfig prompts for the DIBS options read:

    DIBS support (DIBS) [N/m/y/?]
      intra-OS shortcut with dibs loopback (DIBS_LO) [N/y/?]

Clarify the DIBS prompt by expanding the acronym.
Capitalize the first character of the DIBS_LO prompt.
While at it, join the first two lines of the DIBS help text into a real
sentence.

v2:
  - Drop changing dibs to all caps, which was completely wrong for the
    module name,
  - Target "net-next" instead of "net".
