serial: 8250: fix ordering of entries for menu display 

Improve the "8250/16550 serial support" menu so that entries in it
are displayed in a better order (reorder a few symbols) and so that
intervening symbols don't break up the dependency list, allowing menu
entries to be displayed with proper indentation.

Say Y here if you want the kernel to try to guess which IRQ

This is considered unsafe; it is far better to configure the IRQ in
a boot script using the setserial command.

You will need to provide module parameter "probe_rsa", or boot-time
parameter 8250.probe_rsa with I/O addresses of this card then.
