To remove the need of empty config files, the `board_check_revision()`
now accepts a list of valid revisions.
As example:
```
board_check_revision(
FORMAT MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
VALID_REVISIONS 0.1.0 0.5.0 0.10.0
)
```
The code is still compatible with the `<board>_<revision>.conf` changes
so that if different revisions of a board has Kconfig differences, then
there is no need to also specify the list of valid revisions.

The --nrf-family argument has been unnnecessary since 6628a16
(" runners: nrfjprog: boilerplate and recover rework").
Remove a few stragglers that are still using it, to avoid it being
copy/pasted into other board definitions.

The debugging section was generalized for flash and debugging tools.
The links were refactored accordly and all references were updated.
To be consistent, the directory doc/guides/debbugging was renamed to

The board name for the nRF52 DK, so far known as nrf52_pca10040, is
renamed to nrf52dk_nrf52832. Its documentation and all references
to its name in the tree are updated accordingly. Overlay and
configuration files specific to this board are also renamed, to
match the new board name.

This is joint work with Kumar Gala (see signed-off-by).
Document the changes to the generated node macros in macros.bnf,
moving the old file to legacy-macros.bnf and putting it in its own
section.
The actual generated macros are now a low-level detail, so rewrite the
foregoing sections as examples in terms of the new <devicetree.h> APIs.

Now that the west parts of this file are in better shape, it seems a
shame not to flesh out the rest a bit more.
It's been a while since we looked at this document, as it's still
referring to boards (like Arduino 101) that are no longer supported by
Zephyr, and is generally lacking in concrete, step-by-step advice
for going from zero to working board.
Let's fix that.

Add a new 'Setting Kconfig configuration values' page in the new Kconfig
section in 'User and Developer Guides'. Move all the information on
setting Kconfig symbols from 'Application Development' and the board
porting guide into it. The same page now covers both configuration files
and Kconfig.defconfig files.
Add links to the new page in various places to make it easy to find.
Also add some more references to the top-level Kconfig page and other
Kconfig pages.
A lot of stuff was rewritten while moving it over (the CONF_FILE
documentation has been cleaned up in particular). Some new information
has been added as well, like a tip re. minimal configurations being
helpful when making Kconfig settings permanent, and a warning re.
dependencies being ORed rather than ANDed when defining a symbol in
multiple locations.
Fixes: #20915

The Kconfiglib Kconfig extensions are documented in the porting guide,
which is a pretty weird place to document them. Document them under a
new page in the Kconfig section of User and Developer Guides instead.
Also remove the section about the old Zephyr Kconfig behavior for
defaults (tried last-to-first instead of first-to-last). The behavior
was changed 16 months ago (and was undocumented before that), so it
might not be that useful to mention anymore.
Piggyback misc. small language cleanups and organization nits.
