Currently, the symlinks in the generated filesystems will have the
UID of the user running the build, because 'chown' does not change
the ownership of symlinks, by default.
Although the implications are limited, some may not want that UID
to leak in the generated filesystems.
So, use 'chown -h' so even symlinks get properly chowned.

When adding a new user (or a new group), we would get warnings, like:
[...]/support/scripts/mkusers: line 145: [: too many arguments
This is because we're checking if a UID (or a GID) is already defined,
and/or is different from the requested one, both checks in the same
test.
Of course, if a UID (or a GID) is not defined, it does not have a value,
so we can not compare it to an integer.
Fix that by splitting the test in two, so the second is only executed if
the first is sucessful.

This fixes the spurious "[: too many arguments" errors from mkusers.

To make the naming consistent (all user-visible options should be
prefixed with BR2_).
An entry is added to Makefile.legacy to warn users who have set
BUILDROOT_CONFIG but not BR2_CONFIG.
Still export BUILDROOT_CONFIG but pointing to some phony value, to
make sure that scripts that still use it fail in a predictable way.

Packages that install daemons may need those daemons to run as a non-root,
or an otherwise non-system (eg. 'daemon'), user.
Add infrastructure for packages to create users, by declaring the FOO_USERS
variable that contain a makedev-syntax-like description of the user(s) to
add.
