In drivers/hid/, most drivers depend on CONFIG_HID, while a couple of the
drivers in subdirectories instead depend on CONFIG_HID_SUPPORT and use
'select HID'. With the newly added INTEL_THC_HID, this causes a build
warning for a circular dependency:

It's better to be consistent and always use 'depends on HID' for HID
drivers. The notable exception here is USB_KBD/USB_MOUSE, which are
alternative implementations that do not depend on the HID subsystem.
Do this by extending the "if HID" section below, which means that a few
of the duplicate "depends on HID" and "depends on INPUT" statements
can be removed in the process.
