Ok, I see. How about adding a way to detect that we are build-testing
with randconfig instead?

I think most of the 'depends on !COMPILE_TEST' are for cases that
impact compile-testing in some way (more false-positive warnings,
fewer real warnings, much slower compile speed), rather than a lack
of check for a specific compiler version.

We might be able to replace the CONFIG_STANDALONE and
CONFIG_PREVENT_FIRMWARE_BUILD with Kconfig $(shell)
checks if you think that leads to an improvement.
