syslinux: build with the target toolchain Until now, the host toolchain was used to build syslinux, as it was not possible to build a 32-bit syslinux with a x86-64 toolchain. However, syslinux requires gnu-efi, and gnu-efi is built using the target toolchain. Mixing different toolchains doesn't work well, so this commit changes the syslinux package to use the target toolchain for syslinux as well. This is made possible by patches 0003-Fix-ldlinux.elf-Not-enough-room-for-program-headers-.patch and 0004-memdisk-Force-ld-output-format-to-32-bits.patch. Since syslinux also contains some utilities that have to run on the host, those have to continue being built with the host toolchain, which requires patch 0005-utils-Use-the-host-toolchain-to-build.patch. Patch 0006-lzo-Use-the-host-toolchain-for-prepcore.patch is about building prepcore, another utility with the host toolchain as it is required at build-time. This was tested using a Buildroot's built x86_64 toolchain, and checked that the output binaries are 32-bits. It was tested as well if they actually boot on hardware.

Config.in files: use if/endif instead of 'depends on' for main symbol In the Config.in file of package foo, it often happens that there are other symbols besides BR2_PACKAGE_FOO. Typically, these symbols only make sense when foo itself is enabled. There are two ways to express this: with depends on BR2_PACKAGE_FOO in each extra symbol, or with if BR2_PACKAGE_FOO ... endif around the entire set of extra symbols. The if/endif approach avoids the repetition of 'depends on' statements on multiple symbols, so this is clearly preferred. But even when there is only one extra symbol, if/endif is a more logical choice: - it is future-proof for when extra symbols are added - it allows to have just one strategy instead of two (less confusion) This patch modifies the Config.in files accordingly.
