176afdb3a1 linux: add shorter shortcuts
We only have one Linux kernel package, and "linux26-" is an anachronism
in today's world.  So add useful "linux-%" shortcuts to the "linux26-%".

17b66affdf ccache: rework ccache management
* 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

5f71fc1f19 Remove support for shared configuration cache
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.

2b504fe1f6 buildroot.html: html code clean-up and other issues - Part2
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).

it now looks correctly on ancient IE versions with broken png alpha
