Change 'depends on INPUT_ADXL34X=n' to '!(INPUT_ADXL34X)' to allow both
drivers to be compiled as modules. The user then can use the blacklist
to block loading one.

There are two drivers for the compatible:

- adi,adxl345

* IIO: 
  drivers/iio/accel/adxl345_core.c
  drivers/iio/accel/adxl345_spi.c
  drivers/iio/accel/adxl345_i2c.c
* Inputs:
  drivers/input/misc/adxl34x-spi.c
  drivers/input/misc/adxl34x-i2c.c

To disallows both being complied, the depends INPUT_ADXL34X=n
was added to ADXL345 symbols. However, it should be possible to compile
both as modules, then blacklist one of them in the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
file. This patch changes the rule to !(INPUT_ADXL34X) to allow both as
modules, but still disallow INPUT_ADXL34X to be built-in and ADXL345 as
module.

The following compatibles are not shared between both drivers:

* IIO:
  adi,adxl375 spi/i2c
* Inputs:
  adi,adxl34x i2c

Changes in v2:
- Added warning to Kconfig for users to not add both to the kernel.
  A similar patch will be sent to the input subsystem.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251031-adxl345-allow-adxl34x-mod-v1-1-cd65749ba89c@analog.com

Applied to my local branch that I'll just push out as testing until
I can rebase on rc1.

Thanks
