linuxKernel.kernels.linux_{lqx,zen}: add custom extra config

This is based on the following sources:
- https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/linux-zen/-/blob/main/config
- https://github.com/damentz/liquorix-package/blob/6.4/master/linux-liquorix/debian/config/kernelarch-x86/config-arch-64
- https://liquorix.net/

This is not supposed to be exhaustive, so we may not completely match
upstream here. However, we should get most of the improvements in upstream
webpage, and there is always space for further tuning in the future.

Fixes: #241986
