Mark DISTRO_DEFAULTS as deprecated
Standard boot has been in place for a while now. Quite a few problems have been found and fixed. It seems like a good time to mark the script-based approach as deprecated and encourage people to use standard boot. Update the DISTRO_DEFAULTS Kconfig to encourage people to move to standard boot, which is able to boot Linux distributions automatically. Add a short migration guide to make this easier.
