[PATCH master] security: hide CRYPTO_BUILTIN_DEVELOPMENT_KEYS behind INSECURE

CONFIG_HAS_INSECURE_DEFAULTS is meant for options that may be insecure
by default and need extra care when used in secure deployments.

CONFIG_CRYPTO_BUILTIN_DEVELOPMENT_KEYS can't be used in a secure manner
at all and the help text spells it out, so it's more appropriate to have
it explicitly depending on INSECURE.
