(all)defconfig does not need to call conf_set_all_new_symbols() because
conf_write() calculates all symbols based on their default unless they
have been user-defined.

conf_set_all_new_symbols(def_default) is no-op except for "choice".
It calls sym_cal_value() for "choice", but the SYMBOL_VALID is cleared
by set_all_choice_values() later on.  So, conf_write() will re-calculate
it, which is just a wasteful computation.  The only difference I see
is SYMBOL_DEF_USER flag for "choice", but it gives no difference to the
resulted .config file.

I confirmed this change still produced the same .config for all ARCH.

I also moved savedefconfig to collect the no-op cases at the end of
the switch statement.

Another side effect of conf_set_all_new_symbols(def_default) is that
SYMBOL_NEED_SET_CHOICE_VALUES is set on all choice values. Might want
to check fbe98bb9ed3d ("kconfig: Fix defconfig when one choice menu
selects options that another choice menu depends on") to make sure
nothing breaks related to that.

Cheers,
Ulf

Thanks for your comments!

From a quick test, this patch seems OK,
but I need to take a closer look at this.
