This commit allows the user to store defconfigs in
$BR2_EXTERNAL/configs/. To achieve this:
* It adds a new %_defconfig that looks in $BR2_EXTERNAL/configs/ for
the corresponding defconfig file.
* Updates the help target to also list external defconfigs.

This commit allows the BR2_EXTERNAL directory to contain Config.in and
Makefile code, which gets integrated into the Buildroot build logic:
- Buildroot automatically includes the $BR2_EXTERNAL/Config.in in the
top-level configuration menu.
- Buildroot automatically includes the BR2_EXTERNAL/external.mk in
the build logic, so it can for example be used to include other .mk
files that define package recipes.
This is typically intended to be used to create target packages in the
BR2_EXTERNAL directory, but can also be used for bootloaders, host
packages, or other custom make logic.
We also add a dummy Config.in file in support/dummy-external/ to
ensure that the source "$BR2_EXTERNAL/Config.in" line will point to an
existing file even when BR2_EXTERNAL is not used by the user.

This commit introduces the BR2_EXTERNAL environment variable, which
will allow to keep Buildroot customization (board-specific
configuration files or root filesystem overlays, package Config.in and
makefiles, as well as defconfigs) outside of the Buildroot tree.
This commit only introduces the variable itself, and ensures that it
is available within Config.in options. This allows us to use
$BR2_EXTERNAL in a 'source' statement in Config.in.
Following patches extend the usage of BR2_EXTERNAL to other areas
(packages and defconfigs).
In details, this commit:
* Introduces the BR2_EXTERNAL Kconfig option. This option has no
prompt, and is therefore not visible to the user and also not
stored in the .config file. It is automatically set to the value of
the BR2_EXTERNAL environment variable. The only purpose of this
BR2_EXTERNAL Kconfig option is to allow $BR2_EXTERNAL to be
properly expanded when used inside Kconfig source statements.
* Calculates the BR2_EXTERNAL value to use. If passed on the command
line, then this value is taken in priority, and saved to a
.br-external hidden file in the output directory. If not passed on
the command line, then we read the .br-external file from the
output directory. This allows the user to not pass the BR2_EXTERNAL
value at each make invocation. If no BR2_EXTERNAL value is passed,
we define it to support/dummy-external, so that the kconfig code
finds an existing $(BR2_EXTERNAL)/package/Config.in file to
include.
* Passes the BR2_EXTERNAL into the *config environment, so that its
value is found when parsing/evaluating Config.in files and .config
values.

This patch fixes an issue that occurs during the manual build process
which will occur when BR2_EXTERNAL is introduced.
During the package list generation, the python script using kconfiglib
module reads and parses the Config.in files. So, symbols, including
environment variables, got expanded and/or resolved. In
kconfiglib.py, this patch fixes the regex that did not allow to use
numbers in the environment variable names, so '$BR2_EXTERNAL' got
wrongly expanded like it was '${BR}2_EXTERNAL':

xlib_libX11, one of the main libraries of X.org, uses dlfcn.h and dlopen.
To avoid having to add a dependency on !BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB on tons of
packages, we promote this dependency to X.org itself (similar to how thread
support is handled in X.org).

Just like for binutils, gdb versions pulled from Git want to
regenerate their documentation, and none of the MAKEINFO tricks we've
tried worked properly, so we're simply adding host-texinfo as a

When the binutils source code is pulled from a Git repository, a
number of generated files are not present, and need to be
re-generated. Those files are generated by flex, bison, and texinfo,
so we need to pull the corresponding dependencies.
Notice that we tried avoiding the texinfo dependency by doing a number
of MAKEINFO tricks, but none of them worked properly, so we've instead
chosen to depend on host-texinfo.

Note that we add an explicit list of architectures that are supported
by uClibc, and Microblaze is not part of them, because it currently
doesn't build for this architecture.

uClibc, to avoid selecting uClibc on Microblaze]

The patch "pandaboard: Fix defconfig build" locked the
default pandaboard kernel to 3.8.11. This is inconvenient,
since the boot process has changed since kernel > 3.8.
Update the default kernel to 3.12.2 and fix the boot image
configuration, but remain compatible with legacy U-Boot
versions by using appended flattened device tree uImage.
This change *should* keep future kernels compatible with a
fixed U-Boot version.
Note the default device tree is now for the pandaboard-ES,
so users of other board revisions will need to set the
correct DTS_NAME.

Python saves a pre-compiled support/scripts/kconfiglib.pyc file
side-to-side with the corresponding .py file.
This does not work if the Buildroot source tree is read-only (but
this is not an error for Python, which keep going OK).
But this may cause issues for out-of-tree builds in case the same
Buildroot source tree is shared by many builds.
Also, 'make clean' currently does not clean this file, and out-of-tree
builds can remove it either, at the risk of causing issues for other
out-of-tree builds running at the same time.
Just tell Python not to generate .pyc files:
- call the script via python, don't use the sha-bang
- thus, make the script non-executable, and remove the sha-bang
