Currently, packages using target finalize hooks must remember that they
need to register their hook in TARGET_FINALIZE_HOOKS
conditionally (otherwise their hook will be triggered even if the
package is disabled).
In order to avoid this potential mistake, this commit introduces a
per-package target-finalize hook variable, in which packages can
register their target-finalize hooks, with the guarantee that they will
only be triggered if the package is enabled.

When using a br2-external tree, it is possible (as stated in our manual)
to implement whatever arbitrary extra make rules (such as flashing a
board, or extracting the rootfs in an NFS export...). Some of those
extra rules might be exposed to the user as new entry points that the
user can call by itself.
However, there is no way for the br2-external to advertise those new
rules in the help text.
We add the possibility to do so, by adding a new make rule, called
help-custom, advertised in our own help info.
It is up to the br2-external tree to provide whatever help text is
deemed necessary. The format of the help is completely free-form.
Note that we need to provide an empty, dummy help-custom rule, since it
is always advertised (making it .PHONY does not work). Since this rule
is empty, make gently reports that there is "Nothing to be done for
`help-local'", which is pretty well fitting when help-local was not
provided (either because there's no br2-external tree, or when the
br2-external tree does not provide it.

Leverage the CSV files produces by size-stats (make graph-size) to allow
for a comparison of rootfs size between two different buildroot
compilations.
The script takes the file-size CSV files of two compilations as input, and
produces a textual report of the differences per package.
Using the -d/--detail flag, the report will show the file size changes
instead of package size changes.
The -t/--threshold option allows to ignore file size differences smaller

Currently, we forcibly override BR2_EXTERNAL when building the manual,
so as to avoid referring to packages therein from the manual.
However, when generating the lists of packages, we limit ourselves to
scanning for packages in (Buildroot's) TOPDIR and never search in
BR2_EXTERNAL. So, we do not really need to override BR2_EXTERNAL when
generating the manual to achieve the same result.
Furthermore, we're only looking for packages that are defined in the
sub-menu "Target packages", and never anywhere else, and especially not
in the sub-menu "User-provided options".
Finally, we're soon to completely eliminate use of BR2_EXTERNAL in
Kconfig altogether, so that would no longer have any impact anyway.
So, just leave BR2_EXTERNAL alone when generating the manual.

When building in a different output directory than the original build,
there will currently be a lot of ccache misses because in many cases
there is some -I/... absolute path in the compilation. Ccache has an
option CCACHE_BASEDIR to substitute absolute paths with relative paths,
so they wil be the same in the hash (and in the output).
Since there are some disadvantages to this path rewriting, it is made
optional as BR2_CCACHE_USE_BASEDIR. It defaults to y because the
usefulness of ccache is severely reduced without this option.
In addition to CCACHE_BASEDIR, we also substitute away the occurences
of $(HOST_DIR) in the calculation of the compiler hash. This is done
regardless of the setting of BR2_CCACHE_USE_BASEDIR because it's
quite harmless.

Because of a limitation in how makedevs resolves names [0], usernames

Fixing makedevs would involve us rewriting a /etc/passwd and /etc/group
parser (not too complex, still not trivial).
Document that the user and group fields should only be numbers, not
names. Also, the manual is currently misleading, as an example indeed
uses names for the user and group fields. Fix that and expand the
explanations.
The mode field should also be numbers, not a rwx combo.
Slight typographical eye-candy about major/minor fields.

The following allows a user definition to specify that a created user
entry should not have a password value set. Original implementation
allowed a user definition to provide a password value of "=" (no quotes)
to generate a crypt-encoded empty string value. In some cases, it may be
desired to have no value specified for a user's password. By using a
value "-" for a password, no value will be set in the shadow value.
An example when this can be used is when logging into a terminal.
Logging into a session with an encoded empty password will prompt a user
to enter a password since it does not know the password is empty. If the
password field blank, a login session will not prompt for a password.

Commit 53903a15 (*config: improve handling of BR2_LEGACY) added an
option to entirely skip legacy entries, by passing a variable in the
environment.
However, it missed one location where that variable is also needed,
which is generating the list of packages and deprecated features for
inclusion in the manual.
Fix that by re-using the global $(COMMON_CONFIG_ENV) variable,
overriding just what we don't want (i.e. br2-external location and
defconfig path).
Also, slightly re-order variables so the ones we override come right
after the common settings, moving the specific ones at the end, one
variable per line.

Add support to explicitly state that an archive has no hash.
This can be used for archives downloaded from a repository, like a
git-clone or a subversion checkout, or using the github helper.
This will come in handy when we'll eventually make hashes mandatory as
soon as a .hash file exists: for some packages, like gcc, some versions
are downloaded as archives from upstream, while other versions may come
from a GitHub repository (via the github herlper).
In this case, a .hash file would exist, that contains hashes for the
downloaded tarballs, but archives downloaded from the repository would
not have a hash (since it is currently not possible to have reproducible
such archives). So, we'd need a way to explicitly state there is no
hash, on purpose, for those archives.
So, add 'none' as a new type of hash.

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.

As suggested by Thomas: the AsciiDoc options we use ensure we get a sane
output of the document. We want that configuration to be applied to
other documents as well.
Up until now, it was implicit that the configuration was applied to
our manual, becasue we only supported document-specific configuration,
and the configuration we had was in our manual dir, so we got to use it.
But now, we can render other documents, especially ones from
br2-external, and we want those to also use the default configuration
from Buildroot, but still be able to provide their own customisation.
So, always add Buildroot's configuration first, if available, before we
append the document's configuration.

Our manual does not use external filters in asciidoc, so we are happy
with just looking for resources from our source tree.
However, other documents (like ones in br2-external) may use such

External filters generate their output files in the output directory, so
we must also look for resources in there.
Note: external filters in asccidoc are used thus:

ditto, but for the specific format

to run additional actions to fill-in the build directory

This is supposed to replace the current use of overloading the internal

GENDOC_INNER still has one hard-coded path to the document's directory:
the asciidoc .conf files.
Add a new argument to GENDOC_INNER to pass the directory of the
document.
Notes:
- this makes for overly-long lines, but splitting is not possible,
otherwise the first argument on the continuation line would get (at
least) a leading space or tab, and that would break either or all of
the variables names, the dependency rules, or the filenames we look
for. A future patch will further clean this up (see: docs/asciidoc: call
$(pkgname) and $(pkgdir) in a single place.)
- this means that another document would be missing our tweaks from
asciidoc-text.conf to not render images and sanely render hyperlinks.
But that was already the case anyway, since we were using docs/$(1)/ to
search for that file. A further patch will allow us to have such
configuration in a common place.

Also, it defines some dependency on the generation rule, onto:

This is problematic, as it is not possible to have another document

Move the creation of $(BUILD_DIR)/manual and the rsyncing of the
sources into GENDOC.
This is is needed so that GENDOC can be easily used to generate another
document, without requiring that document to duplicate the copying rules.

The PDF manual generation reaches the default xsltproc's template
recursion limit when processing the target package list; this makes the
PDF manual generation fail [1-3].
This limit can be raised with the '--maxvars' option. Unfortunately,
this option is not correctly handled in the latest xsltproc/libxslt
release (1.1.28), but this bug is already fixed in the libxslt
repository [4].
This patch disables the PDF manual generation (makes it warn with a
meaningful error message) when the xsltproc program found in the PATH
does not support the --maxvars option.
So, one can still generate the PDF manual if he/she extends PATH with
the location of a working xsltproc, by running:
$ PATH=/path/to/custom-xsltproc/bin:${PATH} make manual-pdf

This patch reworks the manual source preparation by:
- moving the build directory under $(BUILD_DIR)/, this keeps consistency
with the other Buildroot infrastructures;
- adding a couple of targets: 'manual-rsync' and 'manual-prepare-sources',
to deal more efficiently with the manual sources and avoid rsync-ing
them on every single manual-* target.
The 'manual-rsync' target only copies the manual sources under git, while
the 'manual-prepare-sources' also takes care of the generated ones. These
targets are now run only once, and the manual build is no longer cleaned
after each manual format generation.
Now, the 'manual-clean' target only remove the manual build directory, but
keeps the output one $(O)/output/doc/manual unchanged.
Doing so (moving the manual build directory and keeping it between 2
manual format generation) ensures that all generated sources are taken
in account when generating the manual [1].

While the autotools infrastructure was using FOO_MAKE_OPT, generic packages
were typically using FOO_MAKE_OPTS. This inconsistency becomes a problem
when a new infrastructure is introduced that wants to make use of
FOO_MAKE_OPT(S), and can live alongside either generic-package or
autotools-package. The new infrastructure will have to choose between either
OPT or OPTS, and thus rule out transparent usage by respectively generic
packages or generic packages. An example of such an infrastructure is
kconfig-package, which provides kconfig-related make targets.
The OPTS variant is more logical, as there are typically multiple options.
This patch renames all occurrences of FOO_MAKE_OPT in FOO_MAKE_OPTS.

Currently, we only document (e)glibc and uClibc as C libraries on which
we can depend. However, we've supported musl for quite some time now.
So, also refference it in the manual, when dealing with toolchain
options a package may have to depend on.
