Kconfig: Remind users to delete .config when switching boards
Because Kconfig default values *ONLY* get set when they are first configured, if you switch mainboards with an existing .config, the values will not be set as expected for the new board.
This seems to confuse most users, so put a warning in a visible location to let them know.
