icu does not recognize 'uclinux' as a supported platform. While making
it recognize uclinux is easy, there is another problem down the road:
icu does very weird things to generate an ELF library containing
static data (libicudata.a), and the generated library being ELF, it is
not compatible with the FLAT binary format expected by uclinux
platforms such as Blackfin in FLAT format.
Therefore, we simply disallow the selection of icu on FLAT
platforms.
Note that adding a dependency on BR2_BINFMT_ELF doesn't work, because
BR2_BINFMT_FDPIC is considered to be separate (even if technically
FDPIC is a derivative of ELF). That's why the dependency we're adding
is "depends on !BR2_BINFMT_FLAT" and not "depends on BR2_BINFMT_ELF".

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.

icu depends on __sync_sub_and_fetch and other atomic primitives that
don't exist in the ARC toolchain yet.

- trailing whitespace
- spaces instead of tabs for indentation
- help text not indented with tab + 2 spaces

This patch adds missing comments about (e)glibc dependencies and updates the
text of existing comments.
Additionally, it splits dependency expressions for the touched packages from
depends on BR2_BASE_DEP && !BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC
to
depends on BR2_BASE_DEP
depends on !BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC
so that (positive) base dependencies are separate from the (negative)
toolchain dependencies. This strategy makes it easier to write such comments
(because one can simply copy the base dependency from the actual package
config option), but also avoids complex and long boolean expressions.
