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.

        return pattern.sub(r'%s \1' % replacement, s)

    new = s
    new = replace_title(new, '=', '=')
    new = replace_title(new, '+', '=====')
    new = replace_title(new, '^', '====')
    new = replace_title(new, '~', '===')
    #new = replace_title(new, '-', '==')

    s.seek(0)
    s.write(new)
    s.resize(s.tell())
    s.close()
    f.close()

ffeda5e429 manual/faq: add section about why no binary packages
It comes up every now and then on the list, so better be prepared to
point at the manual, rather than rehash the same every time.

Most of the chapter is a copy-paste of the report from the Buildroot
Developpers Day in Pragues, 2011-10-28:
    http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2011-November/047229.html

We consider the opinions expressed in that report to be still valid
now, two years later.

163ec17904 docs/manual: remove FAQ entry about 'depends on' vs. 'select'
The FAQ is before the section on package development, and only covers
user issues, not developer issues, so the FAQ entry about 'depends on'
vs. 'select' really doesn't have its place here.

And the 'depends on' vs. 'select' issue is already covered in a later
section, see
http://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#depends-on-vs-select.
