The following changes allow for use of a central configure cache
file. This speeds up configuration of packages.
Its use is configurable at the top level (BR2_CONFIG_CACHE - default n).
Old style makefiles can use it if they use the following MACRO in makefiles:
$(AUTO_CONFIGURE_TARGET) see my change to directfb.mk.
New style Autotools.in will use it if you set the global option.
However you can enable the global option and on a per package overrule it by doing
the following: $(PKGNAME)_USE_CONFIG_CACHE = NO see fontconfig.mk for an example
of this.
Finally I have removed a few config variable settings which indicated no CXX compiler
as this is wrong and breaks the build when using this central cache.

I would appreciate feedback on this change (I have been testing for 2-3 weeks)
But I can never test all cases! If you enable the BR2_CONFIG_CACHE option some
Makefile.autotools.in based packages may now break - I cannot build them all.
In this case you may need to remove config options that are being hardcoded all
over the place (like gtk saying we have 2 CXX compiler) or disable the use
of CONFIG CACHE file like I have done in fontconfig.
I can build all packages required to get WebKit on DirectFB up and running
and it runs fine.
I will try to resolve any issues this creates as fast as I can.

The following patch makes the MESSAGE Macro in Makefile.autotools.in
work.
I think it was originally intended to print the messages in bold type
but it doesn't appear to work correctly. This patch should work on all
platforms.

(Fixed to not continously call tput)
This patch will create the autotools-stamps directory early in the build
process, thus making it possible for non Makefile.autotools.in packages to use
this directory to hold stamp files.

Minor fix for Makefile.autotools.in that deals with the packages
that use AUTOCONF to regenerate configure etc.
(my mistake to start with)

1. I added a HOOK_POST_EXTRACT previously so that I could cope with the
bad libxml2 package. This required me to remove some dead patches
(.rej) files after I extracted the package, the issue is that the
EXTRACT target runs patch-kernel.sh to patch the ltmain.sh.
It then finds some.rej files and bombs out.
I have altered the sequence so that the HOOK_POST_EXTRACT target runs
before the make target that patches libtool to deal with this.
2.) I have added a $(PKG)_LIBTOOL_PATCH variable. This is defaulted to
YES however if you override it in the package makefile to NO then the
ltmain.sh file will not be patched automatically but only if you have
added your own patches.
This is necessary for freetype 2.3.7 as it cannot use the
buildroot-libtool patch.
I am using this patch for building a set of packages, however it
is not a complete set of packages so await feedback of issues (if any)

It is not possible currently in Makefile.autotools.in packages
to do something extra after an extract or configure.
This may be useful for example
extract libxml2-2.6.32
POST_EXTRACT = remove some .rej files that are in offical release
patch (not fail because of remaining .rej files)
configure
I think this is useful improvement
(necessary for Makefile.autotools.in packages)

The MAKELEVEL test is not that robust; It fails with the recent log
support or if buildroot is driven from an external Makefile.
Rework it to instead detect source-check/external-deps by the fact that
they set SPIDER.
Handling source/source-check/external-deps together doesn't work, as
wget will then download the sources every time make source is called
even if it's available in DL_DIR
Instead detect source-check/external-deps from MAKELEVEL.
Support downloadable package patches in source-check/external-deps
while we're at it.
