Since the refactoring of the type of libraries in the target filesystem,
these options belong to a choice, and the default is "shared only".
The former option BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB has been moved in the legacy
menu, and only selects the BR2_STATIC_LIBS ("static only") option.
However, because BR2_STATIC_LIBS belongs to a choice, when
BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB is selected, it does not affect the choice.
So, existing Buildroot configurations, which have BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB
set, will silently end with BR2_SHARED_LIBS ("shared only") enabled.
So, the backward compatibility is not kept.
Besides, the legacy BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB option does not select
BR2_LEGACY, so the user is not notified of this legacy option, and the
build silently continues with some undesired changes.
This patch removes the inefficient BR2_STATIC_LIBS selection, correctly
selects the BR2_LEGACY option and extend the help message so the user
can easily know how to update his/her Buildroot configuration.

Since a while, the semantic of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB has been changed
from "prefer static libraries when possible" to "use only static
libraries". The former semantic didn't make much sense, since the user
had absolutely no control/idea of which package would use static
libraries, and which packages would not. Therefore, for quite some
time, we have been starting to enforce that BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB
should really build everything with static libraries.
As a consequence, this patch renames BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to
BR2_STATIC_LIBS, and adjust the Config.in option accordingly.
This also helps preparing the addition of other options to select
shared, shared+static or just static.
Note that we have verified that this commit can be reproduced by
simply doing a global rename of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to
BR2_STATIC_LIBS plus adding BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to Config.in.legacy.

This commit removes the version selection for the busybox
package. Busybox is very well maintained, and bugs are typically fixed
in a timely fashion. Moreover, regressions are fairly unlikely in this
very stable and well-tested tool.
Therefore, there isn't a very compelling reason to have a version
selection for Busybox since we don't accept such a version selection
for the vast majority of other packages, unless there is a strong
reason to do so.
Consequently, this commit:
* Removes the 1.19.4, 1.20.2 and 1.21.1 Busybox versions, patches and
default configuration file.
* Moves the 1.22.1 patches from package/busybox/1.22.1 to just
package/busybox/ like all other packages.
* Renames the default 1.22.1 configuration file to just
busybox.config.
* Adapts the busybox.mk makefile to encode the current version to
use.
* Adds appropriate options to Config.in.legacy. However, even though
the BR2_BUSYBOX_VERSION_1_22_X is removed, we don't add a
Config.in.legacy option for it, since it would cause a legacy
warning for virtually *all* users as most people are currently
using 1.22.x.

Those gcc series are old and are not used as the default versions for
any of the architectures we support, so this commit gets rid of them.
The gcc 4.3.x series technically remains used by the LPC32xx
defconfigs we have:
configs/ea3250_defconfig:BR2_GCC_VERSION_4_3_X=y
configs/fdi3250_defconfig:BR2_GCC_VERSION_4_3_X=y
configs/phy3250_defconfig:BR2_GCC_VERSION_4_3_X=y
Back when those defconfigs were introduced, gcc 4.3 was chosen because
it was the only one capable of building a fully working kernel for
those ARM-based platforms. However, the original submitter, Alexandre
Belloni, no longer has access to the hardware platforms, so he is
unable to test if newer gcc versions have fixed the problem. It
certainly doesn't make sense to keep gcc 4.3.x just for those three
boards, so we'll wait for someone actually using those defconfigs to
complain.

Package's options should be named after the package.
Lua is an interpreter, but the package is named 'lua'. So we want to
name the config option with '_LUA_', not with '_LUA_INTERPRETER_'
Besides, naming them with '_LUA_INTERPRETER_' might be confusing, since
there is a package named 'luainterpreter'.
Since the renamed options are part of a choice, we can't use the legacy
options to select the new ones. So we instead instruct the user to go
select the appropriate option in the choice.

This patch bumps systemd to v207 but also declares it as a provider for the
udev virtual package.
Starting with systemd 183, udev has been merged into
systemd. The udev daemon is now installed as /lib/systemd/systemd-udevd.
This means that /dev management using udev is only available if systemd
is chosen as init system.
When configuring systemd, the following options are available:
- activation of systemd-journal-gatewayd, to access the journal via
HTTP.
- activation of extra features like journal compression and sealing.
Support for uClibc has also been removed because:
- upstream has no interest in supporting uClibc.
- using a shrinked libc brings no advantage, given the size of all the
programs included in Systemd. So using glibc does not matter.
