The goal is to be able to use savedefconfig to generate minimal
defconfig files.
Four of our patches are removed since the modifications have been
merged upstream. The new nconf configuration utility has appeared.

Our kconfig-to-buildroot2.patch hasn't been kept up to date with all
the changes made into package/config, and a single patch wasn't very
practical to maintain all our changes. Therefore, this commit adds a
package/config/patches directory, which contains a Quilt series of
patches that correspond to our modifications to the kconfig mechanism.
The huge kconfig-to-buildroot2.patch has been split into 16 smaller
patches. The purpose of some of the modifications has been clearly
identified, while some others were not identified.
The 16 patches together do match exactly the old
kconfig-to-buildroot2.patch. We have been very careful in making sure
that we wouldn't loose any of our modifications.
The only modifications made are :
* Instead of renaming the kernel Makefile to Makefile.kconfig and
naming the Buildroot Makefile just 'Makefile', we instead keep the
original package/config/Makefile from the kernel
scripts/kconfig/Makefile and name the Buildroot Makefile
package/config/Makefile.br. The main Buildroot Makefile is modified
accordingly.
* The documentation README.buildroot2 is updated to explain how to
upgrade to a newer version of scripts/kconfig.
* The kconfig-language.txt documentation is removed, as anybody can
easily find it in the kernel sources so there's no need to
duplicate it here.

We don't actually need to explicitly clean the kconfig stuff, as distclean
already removes the entire BUILD_DIR, but fix up the packag/config makefile
to do the right thing if make clean/distclean is called manually for
completeness.

Support the GTK variant of the graphical kconfig configurator as an
alternative to the Qt3-based one.

It involved:
* Modifying the top-level Makefile to create the xconfig target, and
the $(CONFIG)/qconf target to compile the qconf utility
* Modifying the package/config/Makefile magic so that C++ files and
binaries gets linked properly, re-using the
package/config/Makefile.kconfig logic inherited from the kernel
* Hacking a little bit package/config/Makefile.kconfig in a way
similar to the modifications done for the mconf (menuconfig
interface)
