Kconfig: add some hidden tabs on purpose

Browse source 
Commit d96c36004e ("tracing: Fix FTRACE_RECORD_RECURSION_SIZE Kconfig
entry") removed a hidden tab because it apparently showed breakage in
some third-party kernel config parsing tool.

It wasn't clear what tool it was, but let's make sure it gets fixed.
Because if you can't parse tabs as whitespace, you should not be parsing
the kernel Kconfig files.

In fact, let's make such breakage more obvious than some esoteric ftrace
record size option.  If you can't parse tabs, you can't have page sizes.

Yes, tab-vs-space confusion is sadly a traditional Unix thing, and
'make' is famous for being broken in this regard.  But no, that does not
mean that it's ok.

I'd add more random tabs to our Kconfig files, but I don't want to make
things uglier than necessary.  But it *might* bbe necessary if it turns
out we see more of this kind of silly tooling.
