Subject: gcov: disable CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS when not needed by
 CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL

CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS controls support for running constructor functions at
kernel init time.  According to commit b99b87f70c7785ab ("kernel:
constructor support"), gcov (CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL) needs this.  However,
CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS currently defaults to y, with no option to disable it,
and CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL depends on it.  Instead, default it to n and have
CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL select it, so that the normal case of
CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL=n will result in CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS=n.

Observed in the short list of =y values in a minimal kernel configuration.
