[POWERPC] move 82xx/83xx/86xx Kconfig options to platform selection
The cores used in the MPC82xx/83xx/86xx embedded controllers are very similar to those in the 32 bit general-purpose processors, so it makes sense to treat them as the same CPU family. Choosing between the embedded platforms and the multiplatform code is now done in the platform menu, but functionally everything stays the same. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

+ There are five families of 32 bit PowerPC chips supported.
+ The most common ones are the desktop and server CPUs (601, 603,
+ 604, 740, 750, 74xx) CPUs from Freescale and IBM, with their
+ embedded 52xx/82xx/83xx/86xx counterparts.
+ The other embeeded parts, namely 4xx, 8xx, e200 (55xx) and e500
+ (85xx) each form a family of their own that is not compatible
+ with the others.
