This patch lines up the comments in Config.in files that clarify which
toolchain options the package depends on.

As discussed on the list, devtmpfs is quite a bit nicer default than
the old static /dev, so change it.
Notice that you NEED to enable CONFIG_DEVTMPFS / CONFIG_DEVTMPFS_MOUNT
in the kernel configuration if you manually build a kernel outside
buildroot, otherwise the rootfs won't work.

This commit introduces a specific BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_GETTY configuration flag.
This eliminates the need for checking if BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_GETTY_PORT is an
empty string or not. It also allows hiding various getty options when getty
isn't enabled.

Since kmod 14, the support for building a static library has been
removed completely from kmod. Therefore, we mark kmod as
!BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB, as well as all its reverse dependencies, which
includes the option to use the "udev" /dev management method.
[Peter: show comment for udev when BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB is enabled]

It can be useful to have different configuration use the same post-build
and/or post-image scripts as they share a common infrastructure, but yet
have minor differentiation.
This option allows passing zero or more additional arguments to each
post-build or post-image script.
The same set of extra arguments are passed to all scripts, it is not
possible to pass different arguments to each script.

Since the post-image config option uses the plural for "Custom
scripts", do the same for the post-build config option, for
consistency.

Just like we have a post-build script mechanism that gets executed
after the build of all packages but before the creation of the
filesystem images, let's introduce a post-image script mechanism, that
gets executed once all filesystem images have been generated.
This can for example be used to call a tool building a firmware image
from different images generated by Buildroot, or automatically extract
the tarball root filesystem image into some location exported by NFS,
or any other custom action.

The filesystem overlay is a tree that is copied over the target fs
after building everything - which is currently usually done in the
post-build script.

In case one is using a custom skeleton, the root pasword might already be
set in this case, and should not be overriden.
Just ask for (and set) the root password only for the default skeleton.

Add an option in the menuconfig to specify a root password.
If set to empty, no root password is created; otherwise, the password is
encrypted using MD5 (MD5 is not the default for crypt(3), DES-56 is, but
MD5 is widely available, not-so-strong, but not-so-weak either).
Add a check for 'mkpasswd' as a new dependency.

In order to solve
http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/34f6843137efda20626af72714c110280ec577d7/build-end.log,
this patch makes the D-Bus package as well as all the packages that
select the D-Bus package 'depends on BR2_USE_MMU'.
In addition, for the specific case of gvfs, the missing
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS dependency is added (threads are required by
D-Bus, so they are also required by gvfs which selects D-Bus).

This directory groups the following elements:
* the default root filesystem skeleton
* the default device tables
* the Config.in options for system configuration (UART port for
getty, system hostname, etc.)
* the make rules to apply the system configuration options
Even though the skeleton and device tables could have lived in fs/, it
would have been strange to have the UART, system hostname and other
related options into fs/. A new system/ directory makes more sense.
As a consequence, this patch also removes target/Makefile.in, which
has become useless in the process.
