config: improve help text and prompt for debugging related options

Browse Source 
The help text for the choice of different stripping levels is removed,
since it is not displayed by menuconfig. Instead, only the per-option
help text is visible, so this text is improved.

[Peter: slightly reworked text]

Build packages with debugging symbols
enabled
Build packages with debugging symbols enabled. All libraries
and binaries in the 'staging' directory will have debugging
symbols, which allows remote debugging even if libraries and
binaries are stripped on the target. Whether libraries and
binaries are stripped on the target is controlled by the
BR2_STRIP_* options below.

strip is the normal strip command
Binaries and libraries in the target filesystem will be
stripped using the normal 'strip' command. This allows to
save space, mainly by removing debugging symbols. Debugging
symbols on the target are needed for native debugging, but
not when remote debugging is used.

sstrip is a strip that discards more than the normal strip
Binaries and libraries in the target filesystem will be
stripped using the 'sstrip' command, which strips a little
bit more than the traditional 'strip' command. This allows to
save space, mainly by removing debugging symbols. Debugging
symbols on the target are needed for native debugging, but
not when remote debugging is used.

Do not strip binaries and libraries in the target
