Series kconfig: move compiler capability tests to Kconfig | expand

Commit Message

This config option should be enabled only when both the compiler and
the linker support necessary flags.  Add proper dependencies to Kconfig.

Unlike 'select', 'imply' is modest enough to observe those dependencies.
I suggested this in the help message.
