boot: zephyr: Allow disabling NRFX_WDT on nRF devices #2070

Closed joerchan closed 1 week ago

Allow disabling feeding the watchdog on nrf devices directly using the nrfx_wdt functions. The imply on NRFX_WDT cannot be disabled since NRFX_WDT is a promptless symbol and cannot be assigned in a config fragment. Not even deleting the wdt0 node in a devicetree overlay works since the configuration takes predence and ends in a #error without any nrfx_wdt instances.

To fix this create new Kconfig option with prompt and change the imply to this option. That way the option can be assigned to off by the user.

This is needed to support the use case of an external watchdog controlled using the zephyr watchdog API instead of the wdt peripheral.
