menuselect: Resolve infinite loop in dependency scenario.

Given a scenario where a module has a dependency on both
an external library and a module if the external library was
available and the module was not an infinite loop would
occur. This happened due to the code changing the dependecy
status to no failure on each dependency checking loop
iteration, resulting in the code thinking that it had
gone from no failure to failure each time triggering another
dependency check.

This change makes it so that the old dependency status is
preserved throughout the dependency checking allowing it to
determine that after the first iteration the dependency
status does not transition from no failure to failure.
