build: config: allow bool to select a module pkg

kconfig-v5.6 disallowed a bool symbol to select another symbol that
'depends on m' (i.e. can be only 'm' on 'n').  It is, in fact, an unmet
dependency to have set to 'y'.  However, openwrt depends on the previous
behavior, to be able to build a package that can be a module or built-in
depending on a bool config.  This restores the previous behavior.

- allow a bool symbol to select a tristate symbol that depends on m (i.e.
a package that should only be built as a module).
