[PATCH] ima: allow users to specify the pcr index with IMA_MEASURE_PCR_IDX

The IMA_MEASURE_PCR_IDX option is currently not visible in the kconfig
frontend, so it always uses its default, 10. This means that the
'range 8 14' is dead code, and users are unable to specify the pcr index
value.
In a previous discussion, Mimi explained that users should be able to use
this config option to specify the pcr index. [1]
Let's add a prompt for users to specify the pcr index, when EXPERT is
enabled.
This dead range was found by kconfirm, a static analysis tool for Kconfig.
