[ Upstream commit 0724a7c32a54e3e50d28e19e30c59014f61d4e2c ]

If a 'mainmenu' entry appeared in the Kconfig files, two things would
leak:

        - The 'struct property' allocated for the default "Linux Kernel
          Configuration" prompt.

        - The string for the T_WORD/T_WORD_QUOTE prompt after the
          T_MAINMENU token, allocated on the heap in zconf.l.

To fix it, introduce a new 'no_mainmenu_stmt' nonterminal that matches
if there's no 'mainmenu' and adds the default prompt. That means the
prompt only gets allocated once regardless of whether there's a
'mainmenu' statement or not, and managing it becomes simple.

Summary from Valgrind on 'menuconfig' (ARCH=x86) before the fix:

        LEAK SUMMARY:
           definitely lost: 344,568 bytes in 14,352 blocks
           ...

Summary after the fix:

        LEAK SUMMARY:
           definitely lost: 344,440 bytes in 14,350 blocks
           ...
