parse_options() in drivers/tty/serial/earlycon.c calls uart_parse_earlycon
in drivers/tty/serial/serial_core.c therefore selecting SERIAL_EARLYCON
should automatically select SERIAL_CORE, otherwise will result in symbol
not found error during linking if SERIAL_CORE is not configured as builtin

Fixes: 9aac5887595b ("tty/serial: add generic serial earlycon")
v2: I made an attempt to fix the commit log
v3: I made another attempt to fix the commit log and I also changed
select to depends according to Jiri's comment
v4: fixed another stupid error -- should be "depends on" not "depends"
