Add a package-variable to store the package-specific make rules.
Although this variable would be seldom used, we still document it.
However, we make sure the documentation explicitly states that this
variable should not be used (if it needs to be, the submitter of a
package will be told so during reviews).

This reverts commit 84c825f8e8.
Turns out that the custom help is not available when the $(O) directory
has not been configure yet (i.e. when there is no .config already
filled).
Rather than trying to work around this limitation with dirty hacks, just
revert this feature. After all, this will not prevent an external.mk
from providing custom help anyway; it's just not gonna be advertised nor
displayed with the main help.

When using a br2-external tree, it is possible (as stated in our manual)
to implement whatever arbitrary extra make rules (such as flashing a
board, or extracting the rootfs in an NFS export...). Some of those
extra rules might be exposed to the user as new entry points that the
user can call by itself.
However, there is no way for the br2-external to advertise those new
rules in the help text.
We add the possibility to do so, by adding a new make rule, called
help-custom, advertised in our own help info.
It is up to the br2-external tree to provide whatever help text is
deemed necessary. The format of the help is completely free-form.
Note that we need to provide an empty, dummy help-custom rule, since it
is always advertised (making it .PHONY does not work). Since this rule
is empty, make gently reports that there is "Nothing to be done for
`help-local'", which is pretty well fitting when help-local was not
provided (either because there's no br2-external tree, or when the
br2-external tree does not provide it.

Adding a patch is a modification to Buildroot. Thus this sentence might be

Thomas P. has sent a few big feedback mails recently that explain how a
patch should be formatted. Indeed, this was not explained much in the
manual, so add a section that explains how patches should be formatted.
This is based heavily on the feedback that Thomas P. gave. Also,
specific examples for new packages and version bumps are added.
This will allow us to refer to
https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
in the future instead of composing long mails.

Leverage the CSV files produces by size-stats (make graph-size) to allow
for a comparison of rootfs size between two different buildroot
compilations.
The script takes the file-size CSV files of two compilations as input, and
produces a textual report of the differences per package.
Using the -d/--detail flag, the report will show the file size changes
instead of package size changes.
The -t/--threshold option allows to ignore file size differences smaller
or equal than the given threshold (in bytes).
Example output is:
Size difference per package (bytes), threshold = 0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-8192 busybox
228572 added dmalloc
301584 added jq

This commit updates the documentation to detail when and how to use
the BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_SYNC_x dependency. Note that we chose to not add
a comment about this dependency, because it is mainly tied to
architecture capabilities (except in very specific cases, which would
be way too complicated to explain in a Config.in comment).

blurb about the order of kconfig options' attributes:
- first, the type and the prompt
- the default value if needed
- then dependencies of the 'depends on' category
- followed by dependencies of the 'select' form
- with eventually the help text
