Currently, the documentation says $(PKG)_SITE_METHOD should have upper
case names such as SVN or GIT, but the implementation only accepts lower
case svn or git. This fixes the documentation.

We discourage the addition of custom target skeleton into the official

We only have one Linux kernel package, and "linux26-" is an anachronism
in today's world. So add useful "linux-%" shortcuts to the "linux26-%".

* ccache is now a normal package (both for the host and the target).
* ccache option is now part of the "Build options" menu. It will
automatically build ccache for the host before building anything,
and will use it to cache builds for both host compilations and
target compilations.
* bump ccache to 3.1.3

The configuration cache shared between packages, while being in
principle a nice idea to speed-up the configuration of packages by
avoiding repetitive identical checks, turned out to be unreliable due
to the subtle differences between similar but not identical checks in
different packages. After spending some time trying to fix those, we
concluded that supporting the shared configuration cache is definitely
too hard and too unreliable, and that we'd better get rid of it
altogether.
This patch therefore removes the shared configuration cache
infrastructure and usage.

The current DocType declaration was incorrect. It is neither xhtml strict nor
xhtml transitional. So, instead of dealing with that issue, converted it to
validated Html5.
Fixed white-space errors.
Removed validator html4.01 code.
Color corrected the code sections.
Removed redundant or useless html code.
Changed foo to libfoo, for consistency.
Changed page bookmarking to use header id's.
Re-flowed paragraphs to line break at 80 characters.
Re-formatted the code sections for consistency and correctness.
Kept all list items, headings, and href's on a single line (where possible).

A lot of people complain that the root filesystem generated by
Buildroot doesn't work because it lacks the device files. This is
because they use output/target/ instead of one of the images.
Therefore, insist in the documentation on this point. Even though I'm
unsure if users really read the documentation :-)
