cpufreq / boost: Kconfig: Support for software-managed BOOST

Add CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_BOOST_SW Kconfig option such that software-managed
boost is enabled only after selecting "EXYNOS Frequency Overclocking -
Software".  It also depends on the thermal subsystem to be compiled in,
which is necessary for disabling boost and cooling down the device when
overheating is detected.

Software-managed boost _MUST_ _NOT_ be enabled without thermal subsystem
with properly defined overheating temperature thresholds.

This option doesn't affect the x86's hardware-driven boost support
in the acpi-cpufreq driver.

This driver supports software managed overclocking (BOOST).
It allows usage of special frequencies for Samsung Exynos
processors if thermal conditions are appropriate.
It reguires, for safe operation, thermal framework with properly
defined trip points.
