Inspired by some text in the 'project-specific patches' section, this patch
adds a separate section on layering customizations by providing multiple
post-build scripts, multiple rootfs overlays, etc.

This patch reworks the section 'Step-by-step instructions for storing
configuration' as follows:
- rename into 'Quick guide to storing your project-specific customizations'
and hence make it serve as a summary to the chapter
- change the introduction to make this clear
- update paths to line-up with section 'recommended directory structure'
- recommend BR2_GLOBAL_PATCH_DIR, as is done in the section on adding
patches.
- mention how to add packages in a project-specific directory (to be
expanded in another patch)
- minor rewording
- rename file into customize-quick-guide.txt

This patch adds a new section to chapter 'Project-specific customization' to
describe how to add project-specific packages from a project-specific
directory. The principle was already described in the presentation 'Using
Buildroot for real projects' but was never documented in official Buildroot
documentation.

The Buildroot manual was recommending following paths for project-specific
packages:
package/<company>/<boardname>/foo/
$BR2_EXTERNAL/package/<boardname>/foo/
However, if a company has several boards, it is often the case that some
packages are common for different boards. Therefore, introducing a
<boardname> path component is not ideal.
This patch changes the recommendation to:
package/<company>/foo/
$BR2_EXTERNAL/package/foo/

This patch re-orders the enumeration of typical project customization
actions:
- move the 'patching packages' section downwards.
- group the entries on post-build scripts and rootfs-overlays to match the
actual section text.
Since indented enumerations use asterixes, update the top-level entries with
asterixes too for consistency.

This patch promotes the sections on Buildroot configuration and the
configuration of other components to top-level sections, to match the

Section 'Creating your own board support' is seemingly written in the
mindset of adding support for public boards. Therefore, it is more suited in
the Developer guide, rather than in the User guide.
Adding support for custom non-public boards falls under the
'Project-specific customizations' category and will be described in that
section.
This patch moves the unchanged text into a separate file, included from the
Developer guide. The next patch will make some minor changes to the text
itself.

It also applies to more options than just packages alone, for example
the AVR32 architecture so add an "options" label to it.

The BR2_arm10t option is not correct as it references an ARM family,
while other options indicate a specific ARM core. The ARM cores in
ARM10 family are ARM1020E, ARM1022E and ARM1026EJ-S according to
Wikipedia. However, those are clearly very rare, and Wikipedia only
indicates two Conexant ADSL-related SoC as being part of this family
of ARM cores. Therefore, this commit removes this ARM family.

Wrap sa_restorer member definitions in #ifdef SA_RESTORER to be
consistent with their use.
If an architecture does not provide sa_restorer members but still
defines SA_RESTORER macro, the latter has to be explicitly undefined.
This change fixes compilation failures like this one:
signal.c: In function 'decode_old_sigaction':
signal.c:631:21: error: 'struct old_sigaction' has no member named
'sa_restorer'
signal.c: In function 'decode_new_sigaction':
signal.c:1224:21: error: 'struct new_sigaction' has no member named
'sa_restorer'
* signal.c (struct old_sigaction, struct old_sigaction32,
struct new_sigaction, struct new_sigaction32):
Wrap sa_restorer member in #ifdef SA_RESTORER.
(decode_old_sigaction, decode_new_sigaction):
Wrap use of sa32.sa_restorer in #ifdef SA_RESTORER.
