virtio: add help to CONFIG_VIRTIO option.



Trying to enable a virtio driver (eg CONFIG_VIRTIO_BLK) is painful
because it depends on CONFIG_VIRTIO.  CONFIG_VIRTIO doesn't tell you
how to turn it on (it's selected from anything which provides a virtio
bus).

This patch at least adds some documentation, visible in menuconfig, as
a hint.

		This option is selected by any driver which implements the virtio
		bus, such as CONFIG_VIRTIO_PCI, CONFIG_VIRTIO_MMIO, CONFIG_LGUEST,
		CONFIG_RPMSG or CONFIG_S390_GUEST.

		# Similarly the virtio ring implementation.
