- Remove portability patch since it's no longer needed. I have asked
Mark Wielaard regarding this topic given the portability patch looks
been discontinued since 0.163 and he replied the following:
- "I believe it is no longer needed. At least not on any platform I
am actively maintaining. See also this discussion from last year:
https://lists.fedorahosted.org/pipermail/elfutils-devel/2015-May/004825.html"
- Add zlib dependency since it's now mandatory:
configure: error: zlib not found but is required

As Thomas puts it:
The comment can only be visible when a toolchain that is *not*
uclibc and *not* glibc is used. I.e, the comment is now only visible
when musl is used. Which is not what we want.
Indeed, I completely borked the conditions. When a glibc or uClibc
toolchain is selected, the comment is entirely hidden, and we don;t get
the extra requirements (wchar, !static).
Fix that with the solution proposed by Thomas.

Since a while, the semantic of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB has been changed
from "prefer static libraries when possible" to "use only static
libraries". The former semantic didn't make much sense, since the user
had absolutely no control/idea of which package would use static
libraries, and which packages would not. Therefore, for quite some
time, we have been starting to enforce that BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB
should really build everything with static libraries.
As a consequence, this patch renames BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to
BR2_STATIC_LIBS, and adjust the Config.in option accordingly.
This also helps preparing the addition of other options to select
shared, shared+static or just static.
Note that we have verified that this commit can be reproduced by
simply doing a global rename of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to
BR2_STATIC_LIBS plus adding BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to Config.in.legacy.

Even when doing static builds, a shared library is built. This causes a
build failure under some circumstances, for instance when building for
MIPS + uClibc + static.
After asking upstream if it would be possible to add a configure option
to not build the shared library, the answer was that doing a static
build is not a good idea. Here is a small snippet of the conversation:
"Note that fully static builds are problematic. elfutils uses dlopen to
open the EBL backends (the CPU-specific support snippets), so even if
you link statically, the final binaries are still considerably dynamic."

Disable elfutils for avr32, because:
- elfutils uses canonicalize_file_name, which came after uClibc-0.9.31.
- avr32 uses a toolchain with uClibc-0.9.31

Currently, when we need to do a conditional on the type of C library
used, we need to take into account the three toolchain backends. As we
are going to add eglibc support to the Buildroot toolchain backend, it
would become even uglier, so this patch introduces two new hidden
options: BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_UCLIBC and BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC, that
exist regardless of the toolchain backend. The entire Buildroot code
base is converted to use those options.
Note that we have intentionally created only one option
(BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC) for both glibc and eglibc, since they are
essentially the same, as far as Buildroot is concerned.

elfutils uses the argp family of functions, that isn't available in
uClibc. So, we add a dependency on argp-standalone if building with
uClibc, and modify elfutils source code to link against argp if
needed.

Add and use a --{enable,disable}-progs configuration option to
selectively enable or disable the elfutils programs. Generally, on an
embedded system, the libraries are more useful than the programs, and
being able to not build the programs will make it easier to build the
elfutils libraries on uClibc.

This patch adds a a package for elfutils. For now, the package is
glibc specific, as adding uClibc support for this package is quite
tedious, and will therefore be done through followup patches.
