kbuild: add documentation

RFC PATCH 1/1 kbuild: add documentation
I have missed a place to document how to use kbuild. We already have:
makefiles.txt - which specify mostly the kbuild 'language'
used in the kbuild files.
modules.txt - which deals with modules only.
So I went on and created a file named kbuild.txt. For now it contains only a list of environment variables but we can add more chapters over time now we have a place to do so.
Comments (and updates!) are welcome.
Note: kconfig.txt is a new file - I have not yet pushed it out as I am waiting for Linus to pull the current kbuild bits.
