In the Config.in file of package foo, it often happens that there are other
symbols besides BR2_PACKAGE_FOO. Typically, these symbols only make sense
when foo itself is enabled. There are two ways to express this: with
depends on BR2_PACKAGE_FOO
in each extra symbol, or with
if BR2_PACKAGE_FOO
...
endif
around the entire set of extra symbols.
The if/endif approach avoids the repetition of 'depends on' statements on
multiple symbols, so this is clearly preferred. But even when there is only
one extra symbol, if/endif is a more logical choice:
- it is future-proof for when extra symbols are added
- it allows to have just one strategy instead of two (less confusion)
This patch modifies the Config.in files accordingly.

Finally get rid of all := used for variable definitions in packages,
as we suggest in our manual and during the review of new packages.
While I was at it, I also sometimes added a few missing new lines
between the header and the first variable definition.

Thanks to the pkgparentdir and pkgname functions, we can rewrite the
AUTOTARGETS macro in a way that avoids the need for each package to
repeat its name and the directory in which it is present.

Now that we have libtool-2.2.x patch support, we can get rid of a bunch
of _LIBTOOL_PATH = NO, fixing (potential) cross link issues.
Notice: php not changed, as it uses a very old 1.5 version for the
embedded sqlite, where our buildroot-libtool-v1.5.patch doesn't apply.

By default SDL_image loads libjpeg at runtime on-demand. The find_lib
routine in the configure script of SDL_image searches the /usr/lib directory
of the host machine to find the file name of the jpeg library.
When the host on which Buildroot is being built contains newer version of
libjpeg (e.g. libjpeg7), the configure script incorrectly uses its file
name. The result is a runtime failure to load libjpeg.
Fix this by disabling runtime load of libjpeg.
[Peter: disable for png+tiff as well]

A C library will have been built by the toolchain makefiles, so there is no
need for packages to explicitly depend on uclibc.
