staging: comedi: Kconfig: make COMEDI_BOND select COMEDI_KCOMEDILIB

Currently, to select the "comedi_bond" driver, the "kcomedilib" support
has to be selected first.  It seems more natural to allow the
"comedi_bond" driver to be selected on its own and to automatically
select the "kcomedilib" module as a result of that.  Change the
dependency/select relationship between the two configuration options to
do that.

Also, make "kcomedilib" a module that can be selected independently,
perhaps for use by out-of-tree modules, although it is not terribly
useful for anything other than "comedi_bond" currently.

Also, improve the help text for the config options.

from multiple devices together as one.
Currently, it only handles digital I/O subdevices.

Build the kcomedilib.
This is a kernel module used to open and manipulate Comedi devices
from within kernel code. It is currently only used by the
comedi_bond driver, and its functionality has been stripped down to
the needs of that driver, so is currently not very useful for
anything else.
