kconfig: remove named choice support

Browse Source 
Commit 5a1aa8a1af ("kconfig: add named choice group") did not provide
enough explanation regarding its benefits. A use case was found in
another project [1] sometime later, this feature has never been used in
the kernel.

A choice accepts another option "optional", which allows to set the
choice to 'n' and no entry needs to be selected.
If no [symbol] is associated with a choice, then you can not have multiple
definitions of that choice. If a [symbol] is associated to the choice,
then you may define the same choice (i.e. with the same entries) in another
place.
