On aarch64, the image name is always Image, so let's add support for
that.

correct.]

Several packages have some logic to apply custom patches that existed
before the BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR mechanism: at91bootstrap,
at91bootstrap3, barebox, uboot and linux. Currently, the logic of
those packages to apply custom patches is to match
<package-name>-*.patch, which is not consistent with what we've done
for patches stored in the package directory, and for patches stored in
BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR: in such cases, we simply apply *.patch.
Therefore, for consistency reasons, this commit changes these packages
to also apply *.patch.

Since BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_CONFIG_FILE can either be a complete
.config file or a defconfig file, it can be confusing to the user
whether to choose BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_USE_DEFCONFIG or
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_USE_CUSTOM_CONFIG.
To avoid that confusion, clarify Kconfig entry messages for in-tree
defconfig and custom (def)config files.

The help text for Linux option 'Custom tarball' only refers to ftp or
http tarballs, while in reality file or scp protocols are also
supported.
Triggered by a recent support question, update the help text to clarify
this.

When using a custom local tree, we're using the OVERRIDE_SRCDIR
internally, which means we do not apply patches. Since this is the
expected behavior, make BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_PATCH and
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_LOCAL options exclusive.

The current prompt seems to imply that we want to add Device Tree
support to the Linux kernel:
[*] Device tree support
But what it really means is that Buildroot will build a DTB.
Change the prompt so that it is obvious that this is the intended
behaviour, and users do not get mislead as to why Device Tree support is
not automatically added to their Linux kernel.

Some Config.in(.host) files have constructs like:
config FOO_VERSION
string
default "1.0" if FOO_1_0
default "2.0" if FOO_2_0
default $FOO_CUSTOM_VERSION if FOO_CUSTOM
The dollar sign here is not needed and confusing, so can be removed.
