[Buildroot] [PATCH 1 of 3] linux: add linux-update-config and linux-update-defconfig targets

In analogy to build targets uclibc-update and busybox-update, add
extra targets to copy the current configuration to the custom
configuration file set in buildroot. These targets facilitate the
work of developers adding support for a specific board.

linux-update-config copies .config directly.
linux-update-defconfig first creates a defconfig and copies that.

v2: add defconfig target and rename.
