This can be used this way :
<pkg>_VERSION = 42
<pkg>_SITE = file:///some/local/directory
<pkg>_SOURCE = mypkg-$(<pkg>_VERSION).tar.bz2
Can be useful to integrate a home-made project or for testing purposes.
The default command to retrieve files is 'cp' but 'rsync' could also be used.
Through sshfs, it should also be possible to get non-public remote files on a
ssh server.

This commit adds the functions "pkgname" and "pkgdir", which can then
be used to automatically find the name of the package and the
directory of the package which does the call to
GENTARGETS/AUTOTARGETS/CMAKETARGETS. These functions use the
$(MAKEFILE_LIST) variable, which make automatically makes available,
and which contains the list of included Makefiles, with the current
Makefile being last. Thanks to this variable and a little bit of
string manipulation, we can easily find out automatically the package
name and the directory it is part of.
These functions are used in later commits to simplify the GENTARGETS,
AUTOTARGETS and CMAKETARGETS calls.

The new override source directory mechanism allows to tell Buildroot
to use a particular directory as the source directory for a
package. However, this mechanism works with a local override makefile
and not directly within the package recipe itself.
For some use cases, it might be desirable to write a package recipe
which always refers to a local source directory (and not a http, git,
svn or bazaar download). This commit makes this possible by adding the
'local' site method. It allows to write package recipes as follows:
MYPKG_SITE = /tmp/mypkg-source-code
MYPKG_SITE_METHOD = local
[...]
$(eval $(call GENTARGETS,package,mypkg))

We are often asked "how can I restart the build of a package ?" or
"how can I restart the build of package from the configure part
?". Obviously, tweaking with stamp files is possible, but not very
user friendly.
Therefore this patch adds two new per-package targets: <pkg>-rebuild
and <pkg>-reconfigure. They will remove the right stamp files and
restart the complete build process (by using the 'all' target, so that
not only the package is reconfigured, recompiled and reinstalled, but
the root filesystem images are also regenerated).

The user can now create a custom local override file to override the
source directory for various packages.
An example override file:
ZLIB_OVERRIDE_SRCDIR = /tmp/zlib
STRACE_OVERRIDE_SRCDIR = /opt/strace-4.5.20
would tell Buildroot to use the zlib and strace source code from the
specified directories, instead of download, extracting and patching
the code has done usually by Buildroot.

When a variable <pkg>_OVERRIDE_SRCDIR is defined, then Buildroot will
no longer try to download, extract and patch the package. It will
simply use the value of this variable as the source directory for the
package. The contents of the package sources will be rsynced to the
package build directory in $(O)/build/pkg-version/.
This can be used to tell Buildroot that the sources for a given
package are inside some directory that you control, and which can be
versioned in Git/SVN, or handled in whichever way you want.
Those <pkg>_OVERRIDE_SRCDIR variables will be defined by a local
makefile included by Buildroot, which will be handled in a later
commit.

An initramfs is in fact the same as a cpio archive, but embedded in
the kernel. So instead of duplicating the cpio infrastructure,
we can simply build images/rootfs.cpio and link that into the
kernel.

Devtmpfs doesn't get automounted by the kernel when an initramfs is used.
Since cpio archives are used almost exclusively as an initramfs, the same
fix should be applied to it as for the initramfs.
