Check for missing config options

The current ebuild for version 2.6 fails to set build configuration values that are not present in the default configuration.

An example is the IBSS_RSN option: The ebuild says Kconfig_style_config IBSS_RSN but the option does not show up in the generated .config file because it is missing from wpa_supplicant's defconfig.

The attached patch fixes this by modifying the Kconfig_style_config function to check whether the option has been set and, if not, add it at the end of the file.

CONFIG_DRIVER_ATMEL=y
CONFIG_DRIVER_HOSTAP=y
CONFIG_DRIVER_IPW=y
CONFIG_DRIVER_RALINK=y
CONFIG_WPS2=y
