While commit 2e0d737fc76f ("kconfig: don't silently ignore unhandled characters") introduced a warning for unsupported characters inside parameters, it does not cover situations where a statement has additional characters around it. This change introduces a warning if superfluous characters are found around statements. As the 'help' statement sometimes is written as '---help---', the '-' character would now also be regarded as unhandled, this change also adds a special rule for this case.
