6b59ed35a2 package/pkg-cargo: allow building in a sub-directory
Some packages have their rust sources as a sub-directory, rather
than at the root of the source tree.

Do like we do for autotools-package, and use the package's _SRCDIR
rather than the top-level directory $(@D).

Additionally, in such a situation, it is more than probable that
the Cargo.toml is also present in that sub-directory, so use that
when vendoring the package.

efcb7eeabc docs: fix links to AsciiDoc
Links were aimed at the methods.co.nz domain, which is now returning
404s. The current situation of AsciiDoc is unclear to me: the Fedora
package points to this website, they own asciidoc.org, Wikipedia points
to this project as well but their Git repo's README includes the
following paragraph:

> AsciiDoc.py is a legacy processor for this syntax, handling an older
> rendition of AsciiDoc. As such, this will not properly handle the
> current AsciiDoc specification. It is suggested that unless you
> specifically require the AsciiDoc.py toolchain, you should find a
> processor that handles the modern AsciiDoc syntax.

4f59ababc0 package/doc-asciidoc: fix build for out-of-tree documents
The doc-asciidoc infra allows document to define sources and resources,
and those can only be local (there is no download support for documents).
The currently documented way to specify those is to use the $(pkgdir)
macro to point to the document sources and resources when they are along
the .mk.

However, this works only for sources and not for resources.

Indeed, sources are used to generate Makefile dependency rules, so
$(pkgdir) is expanded and evaluated during the call to $(doc-asciidoc),
while resources are expanded and evaluated when the rules are executed,
which always happen after all the parsing has be done, at which point
$(pkgdir) expands to the last Makefile that was parsed, which is always
Buildroot's own manual.

This went unnoticed so far because Buildroot's manual is 1) the last to
be parsed, and 2) not using $(pkgdir) anyway.

Additionally, $(pkgdir) is mostly an internal macro, that is, as this
change demonstrates, difficult to use, and thus should not be used, in
packages or in documents.

We fix that by introducing $(FOO_DOCDIR), similar to $(FOO_PKGDIR),
which points to the document directory. We choose not to name the
variable FOO_PKGDIR, because it semantically is not a package.

As a consequence, the last argument to the doc-asciidoc macro is now
superfluous, so it is removed, which causes a little bit of churn in
the main macro. As a further consequence, the third argument in the
inner macro is no longer needed either, so it too is removed, which
causes a bit more churn yet in the inner macro.

41ea61d59c support/scripts/mkusers: allow option for system uid/gid
Some software decides based on uid/gid whether a user is a system or
normal (human) user, with different behaviour for those flavors (example
journald [2]).

So adding logic to create system-users is necessary, we take the now
common ranges from [1].

This extends the mkusers script to allow -2 for uid/gid, this argument
will take an identifier from the user range. All identifiers used up to
now should have been from the system range, so -1 is now interpreted as
a system user/group.

Note that after this commit, all the UIDs and GIDs that are created
automatically (with -1) will change. That means if there is peristent
data on an existing system that was created by such an automatic user,
it will suddenly belong to a different user. However, this could already
happen before: if a USERS line is added to a package, then other UIDs
may change as well.

Add system/user ranges as variables, and the argument for user/system
uid variable as well. Thus some magic constants could be removed, some
further occurences of -1 were replaced with equivalent logic. For
consistency, the existing MIN/MAX_UID/GID variables are renamed to
FIRST/LAST_USER_UID/GID.

Update the documentation with the new automatic ranges.

"Even though the ordering has absolutely no consequences in Kconfig, it
 is not logical (when reading). It is more logical and far easier to

 Also, the Config.in example in the manual suggests to use this coding

5da8218184 support/download: drop support for the 'none' hash
Commit 1ba85b7f87 (support/download: add explicit no-hash support)
introduced the 'none' hash type, in an attempt to make hash files
mandatory, but not failing on archives localy generated, like those
for git or svn repositories, especially for those packages where a
version choice was present, which would allow for either remote
archives for which we'd have a hash or VCS trees for which we could
not have a hash for the localy generated archive.

Indeed, back in the time, we did not have a mean to generate
reproducible archives, so having a hash file without a hash for
thosel ocally generated archives would trigger an error in the
hash-checking machinery.

But now, low-and-behold, we do know how to generate those archives,
and we have a mechanism to explicitly exclude some archives from being
hash-checked (e.g. when the version string itself can be user-provided).

As such, the 'none' hash type no longer has any raison d'être, we do not
use it in-tree, and its use in a br2-external tree is most probably
inexistent (as is the use of hash files alotgether most probably).

So we simply drop the support for that.

9d5749d2de docs/manual/cargo: document the cargo-package infrastructure
The Buildroot manual was already providing some details on how to
integrate Cargo packages, and those details now need to be updated
with a proper documentation for the cargo-package infrastructure, as
well as updates related to vendoring support, which affects how
dependencies are handled.

In addition, now that we have vendoring support for Cargo packages,
let's rewrite the dependency management section in a more accurate
way.

We drop the part about the local cache of the registry, because
+CARGO_HOME+ in Buildroot points to $(HOST_DIR)/share/cargo, which is
not shared between builds nor preserved accross builds, so its effect
as a cache is limited.

23186356a1 support/scripts/generate-gitlab-ci-yml: allow multiple tests in one pipeline
The current Gitlab CI mechanism allows to trigger all tests in a CI
pipeline by pushing a branch named <something>-runtime-tests, or to
trigger a single test in a CI pipeline by pushing a branch name
<something>-tests.<name of test>.

However, there are cases where it is useful to run a suite of tests,
for example to run all tests in tests.init.test_busybox.

This commit makes that possible by extending the current semantic of
<something>-tests.<name of test> to not expect a complete test name,
but instead to accept all tests that starts with the given pattern.

This allows to do:

  git push gitlab HEAD:foobar-tests.init.test_busybox.TestInitSystemBusyboxRo

like it was the case before. But it now also allows to do:

  git push gitlab HEAD:foobar-tests.init.test_busybox

to run all Busybox tests.

e1ee121cae docs/manual/using-buildroot-debugger: suggest '-ix' iso '-x' when loading gdbinit
A gdbinit file passed via '-x' will be read _after_ parsing any
object/core file passed on the command-line. In cross-compilation context,
this is particularly a problem when loading a core file, because without the
'sysroot' specified in the gdbinit file, it will give a lot of warnings,
like:

    warning: .dynamic section for "/lib/libstdc++.so.6" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)
    warning: .dynamic section for "/lib/librt.so.1" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)

    warning: .dynamic section for "/lib/libc.so.6" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)
    warning: .dynamic section for "/lib/ld-linux.so.2" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)
    warning: .dynamic section for "/lib/libanl.so.1" is not at the expected address (wrong library or version mismatch?)

    warning: Could not load shared library symbols for 17 libraries, e.g. [...]
    Use the "info sharedlibrary" command to see the complete listing.
    Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?

In contrast, the '-ix' option will load the specified gdbinit file _before_
parsing object/core files. This will remove said warnings.
