We used to prompt CONFIG_VIRTIO_PCI_MODERN to user which may bring a
lot of confusion. E.g it may break various default configs which want
virtio devices.

So this patch fixes this by hide the prompot and document the
dependency.

Note that this effectively makes VIRTIO_PCI_MODERN and VIRTIO_PCI
synonyms, so git goes back to not being able to have VIRTIO_PCI_MODERN
by itself, but it seems that this is ok because the legacy part was already
split out.


There will be a vDPA driver that will select VIRTIO_PCI_MODERN_DEV. It used to belong to one large sereis, but it was not merged since it needs some rebase.
