07c642b735 docs/manual: add the virtual packages list
Add the list of virtual packages as an appendix to the manual.

Also reference this list from appropriate locations elsewhere in
the manual:

  - in section 7.2.2. "Config.in file", after the existing explanations
    on dependencies on target and toolchain options, on a linux kernel,
    and on udev /dev management,

  - in section 7.2.10. "Infrastructure for virtual packages", in the
    provider Config.in and .mk explanations, to have the list of existing
    symbols to select (in Config.in) and packages to provide (in .mk).

86a415df8a manual: use one-line titles instead of two-line titles (trivial)
Asciidoc supports two syntaxes for section titles: two-line titles (title
plus underline consisting of a particular symbol), and one-line titles
(title prefixed with a specific number of = signs).

The two-line title underlines are:
Level 0 (top level):     ======================
Level 1:                 ----------------------
Level 2:                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Level 3:                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Level 4 (bottom level):  ++++++++++++++++++++++

and the one-line title prefixes:
= Document Title (level 0) =
== Section title (level 1) ==

=== Section title (level 2) ===
==== Section title (level 3) ====
===== Section title (level 4) =====

The buildroot manual is currenly using the two-line titles, but this has
multiple disadvantages:

- asciidoc also uses some of the underline symbols for other purposes (like
  preformatted code, example blocks, ...), which makes it difficult to do
  mass replacements, such as a planned follow-up patch that needs to move
  all sections one level down.

- it is difficult to remember which level a given underline symbol (=-~^+)
  corresponds to, while counting = signs is easy.

This patch changes all two-level titles to one-level titles in the manual.
The bulk of the change was done with the following Python script, except for
the level 1 titles (-----) as these underlines are also used for literal
code blocks.
This patch only changes the titles, no other changes. In
adding-packages-directory.txt, I did add missing newlines between some
titles and their content.
