[PATCH] make 'make help' show all *config targets and update descriptions slightly.

[PATCH] make 'make help' show all *config targets and update descriptions slightly.

[Jesper Juhl]

"make help" doesn't show "make randconfig" nor "make config" as options 
and the description of oldconfig could be better (IMHO). Patch below adds 
the missing targets to the help and updates the description of oldconfig.

Applied - the help for oldconfig definitely got better.
