Currently, when we generate .checkpackageignore, we store, for each
error, only the name of the function that generated that error.
Although we currently do not have two check libs that have same-name
check functions, there is nothing that would prevent that, and there
is no reason why two unrelated libs could not implement checks with
the same name.
If such a situation were to arise, we'd have no way, when parsing the
ignore list (in-tree: .checkpackageignore), to know which of the libs
the exclusion would apply to.
Fix that by storing both the library and function names together. The
leading "checkpackagelib." (with the trailing dot, 16 chars) is removed
for brevity, because it's present in all libs' names.
As a consequence, regenerate .checkpackageignore.
Note: people using that script to validate their br2-external trees will
also have to regenerate their own exclusion list if they have one.

When an ignored file is removed (e.g. a package patch is no longer
needed after a version bump), the corresponding entry in the ignore list
is no longer needed.
However, we currently only validate that an ignored *test* still fails,
not that a ignore files is now missing.
Add a new test to check-package that does that check, and add a

Teach check-package to detect python files by type and check them using
flake8.
Do not use subprocess to call 'python3 -m flake8' in order to avoid too
many spawned shells, which in its turn would slow down the check for
multiple files. (make check-package takes twice the time using a shell
for each flake8 call, when compared of importing the main application)
Expand the runtime test and the unit tests for check-package.
Remove check-flake8 from the makefile and also from the GitLab CI
because the exact same checks become part of check-package.

The .mk files inside both support/dependencies and support/misc are not
package recipes, similar to package/pkg-*.mk. The check-package don't
apply to them. Therefore ignore such files.
In the test infra, some br2-externals are used as fixtures to provide
(sometimes) failure cases, so ignore files in these directories.
Files inside support/kconfig are files copied from linux upstream, so do
not generate warnings for them.
support/gnuconfig contains auto-generated config.{guess,sub} files,
so do not generate shellcheck warnings for them.

Currently only SysV init scripts are checked using shellcheck and a few
other rules (e.g. variable naming, file naming).
Extend the check using shellcheck to all shell scripts in the tree.
This is actually limited to the list of directories that check-package
knows that can check, but that list can be expanded later.
In order to apply the check to all shell scripts, use python3-magic to
determine the file type. Unfortunately, there are two different python
modules called "magic". Support both by detecting which one is installed
and defining get_filetype accordingly.
Keep testing first for name pattern, and only in the case there is no
match, check the file type. This ensures, for instance, that SysV
init scripts follow specific rules.
Apply these checks for shell scripts:
- shellcheck;
- trailing space;
- consecutive empty lines;
- empty last line on file;
- newline at end of file.
Update the list of ignored warnings.
Do not add unit tests since no function was added, they were just
reused.
But expand the runtime test for check-package using as fixture a file
that generates a shellcheck warning.

When a new check_function is added to check-package, often there are
files in the tree that would generate warnings.
An example is the Sob check_function for patch files:
| $ ./utils/check-package --i Sob $(git ls-files) >/dev/null
| 369301 lines processed
| 46 warnings generated
Currently these warnings are listed when calling check-package directly,
and also at the output of pkg-stats, but the check_function does not run
on 'make check-package' (that is used to catch regressions on GitLab CI
'check-package' job) until all warnings in the tree are fixed.
This (theoretically) allows new .patch files be added without SoB,
without the GitLab CI catching it.
So add a way to check-package itself ignore current warnings, while
still catching new files that do not follow that new check_function.
Add a file named .checkpackageignore to the buildroot topdir.
It contains the list of check_functions that are expected to fail for
each given intree file tested by check-package.
Each entries is in the format:
<filename> <check_function> [<check_function> ...]
These are 2 examples of possible entries:
package/initscripts/init.d/rcK ConsecutiveEmptyLines EmptyLastLine Shellcheck
utils/test-pkg Shellcheck
Keeping such a list allows us to have fine-grained control over which
warning to ignore.
In order to avoid this list to grow indefinitely, containing entries for
files that are already fixed, make each entry an 'expected to fail'
instead of just an 'ignore', and generate a warning if a check_function
that was expect to fail for a given files does not generate that
warning.
Unfortunately one case that do not generate warning is an entry for a
file that is deleted in a later commit.
By default, all checks are applied. The --ignore-list option allows to
specify a file that contains the list of warnings that should be
ignored.
The paths in the ignore file must be relative to the location of the
ignore file itself, which means:
- in the main Buildroot tree, the paths in the ignore file are
relative to the root of the main Buildroot tree
- in a BR2_EXTERNAL tree, if the ignore file is at the root of the
BR2_EXTERNAL, the paths it contains must be relative to that root
of the BR2_EXTERNAL
This is one more step towards standardizing the use of just 'make
check-package' before submitting patches to the list.

Some file formats have well-established syntax checkers.
One example of this is the tool 'shellcheck' that can analyse shell
scripts for common mistakes.
There is no reason to reimplement such tools in check-package, when we
can just call them.
Add the ability to check-package to call external tools that will run
once for each file to be analysed.
For simplicity, when the tool generated one or more warnings, count it
as a single warning from check-package, that can display something like
this:
|$ ./utils/check-package package/unscd/S46unscd
|package/unscd/S46unscd:0: run 'shellcheck' and fix the warnings
|25 lines processed
|1 warnings generated

In this first commit, add only the ability for check-package to call
external tools and not an example of such tool, as adding each tool to
call may need update to the docker image and can lead to it's own
discussion on how to implement.

The external.mk file in a br2-external usually contains raw makefile
targets. This file is common code and not a package recipe so it should
not be tested against the code-style of a package .mk file.
When using this script to check files in a br2-external tree, usually
the user is responsible for not passing files that check-package do not
understand. But external.mk is special because it is part of the
br2-external structure, so it is likely someone expects it to be
checkable by an in-tree script.
Instead of adding another blob to the manual, just ignore this file.
Only do that when a br2-external is being tested (so with option -b
passed to the script) and also check that it is on the root path of the
br2-external to allow someone to have a package called external.

This script currently uses "/usr/bin/env python" as shebang but it does
not really support Python3. Instead of limiting the script to Python2,
fix it to support both versions.
So change all imports to absolute imports because Python3 follows PEP328
and dropped implicit relative imports.
In order to avoid errors when decoding files with the default 'utf-8'
codec, use errors="surrogateescape" when opening files, the docs for
open() states: "This is useful for processing files in an unknown
encoding.". This argument is not compatible with Python2 open() so
import 'six' to use it only when running in Python3.
As a consequence the file handler becomes explicit, so use it to close()
the file after it got processed.
This "surrogateescape" is a simple alternative to the complete solution
of opening files with "rb" and changing all functions in the lib*.py
files to use bytes objects instead of strings. The only case we can have
non-ascii/non-utf-8 files being checked by the script are for patch
files when the upstream file to be patched is not ascii or utf-8. There
is currently one case in the tree:
package/urg/0002-urg-gcc6-fix-narrowing-conversion.patch.

The check-package script finds base_dir (= the Buildroot directory) and
cd's into it. To be able to support relative paths as arguments, it
first recalculates the arguments relative to base_dir.
However, if there is a symlink anywhere on the path to the
check-package script, the relative paths will be wrong. To solve this,
use realpath() instead of abspath(), so symlinks are resolved before
calculating the relative path.

Currently the script only checks files inside the package/ directory.
Upcoming patches will enable it for other directories.
In order to reliably test for file names, i.e. the Config.in in the base
directory, normalize the path of files to check to a relative path to
the base directory.
Rename the variable that holds the compiled regexp to better represent
its content and rearrange how it is declared to make easy to later add
new directories to check. As a consequence the files that declare
package infra types would not be ignored anymore, so create a new
variable to list the files intree to be ignored during the check. The
same variable will be used by upcoming patches to ignore other files.
Ignore pkg-*.mk and doc-asciidoc.mk since they are package infra files.
In order to not produce weird results when used for files outside the
tree (i.e. in a private br2-external) add an explicit command line
option (-b) that bypasses any checks that would make a file be ignored
by the path that contains it.
When in this out-of-tree mode, the user is responsible for providing a
list of files to check that do not contain files the script does not
understand, e.g. package infra files.
As a result of this patch, besides the known use:
