Felix Fietkau 6d5c71f748 build: auto-generate CONFLICTS for package variants sharing PROVIDES ...

Packages using PROVIDES to declare virtual package alternatives (like
tc-tiny, tc-bpf, tc-full all providing 'tc') could be simultaneously
selected as =y, causing installation conflicts. The PROVIDES mechanism
only handles dependency resolution, not mutual exclusion.

Add add_implicit_provides_conflicts() to automatically generate CONFLICTS
from default variants to non-default variants sharing the same PROVIDES.
This ensures only one variant can be built-in (=y) at a time.

Skip generating implicit conflicts when the non-default already has
explicit CONFLICTS with the default, to avoid Kconfig dependency cycles
with the select-based dependency resolution.
