Documentation/kconfig: more concise and straightforward search explanation 



Re-phrase the explanations on the sorting of search results, in a more
concise and complete way.

Drop reference to the user's locale when sorting alphabetically, since
this is implicit.

	When searching, symbols are sorted thus:

	  - exact match first: an exact match is when the search matches

	    the complete symbol name;

	  - alphabetical order: when two symbols do not match exactly,

	    they are sorted in alphabetical order (in the user's current

	    locale).

	  - first, exact matches, sorted alphabetically (an exact match

	    is when the search matches the complete symbol name);

	  - then, other matches, sorted alphabetically.

	For example: ^ATH.K matches:

	    ATH5K ATH9K ATH5K_AHB ATH5K_DEBUG [...] ATH6KL ATH6KL_DEBUG

	    [...] ATH9K_AHB ATH9K_BTCOEX_SUPPORT ATH9K_COMMON [...]
