bootconfig: Change message if no bootconfig with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_F…

…ORCE=y Change no bootconfig data error message if user do not specify 'bootconfig' option but CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE=y. With CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE=y, the kernel proceeds bootconfig check even if user does not specify 'bootconfig' option. So the current error message is confusing. Let's show just an information message to notice skipping the bootconfig in that case.
