MIPS: Loongson: Unify LOONGSON3/LOONGSON64 Kconfig usage
There are mixed LOONGSON3/LOONGSON64 usages in recently changes, let's establish some rules: 1, In Kconfig symbols, we only use CPU_LOONGSON64, MACH_LOONGSON64 and SYS_HAS_CPU_LOONGSON64, all other derived symbols use "LOONGSON3" since they all not widely-used symbols and sometimes not suitable for all 64-bit Loongson processors. E.g., we use symbols LOONGSON3_ENHANCEMENT, CPU_LOONGSON3_WORKAROUNDS, etc. 2, Hide GSx64/GSx64E in Kconfig title since it is not useful for general users. However, in the full description we use a more detailed manner. E.g., GS264/GS464/GS464E/GS464V. All Kconfig titles and descriptions of Loongson processors and machines have also been updated in this patch for consistency.
