[Thomas: change license to be GPLv2. The header of makedevs.c is a bit
unclear, as it mentions both the GPL and LGPL. But since the code
seems to originally be coming from Busybox, assuming GPLv2 is the
safest option.]

The sources of the makedevs package are shipped with Buildroot, rather than
downloaded from an external location. As a result, no explicit version is
defined, causing build messages and build directory to show 'undefined' as
version.
This patch sets the version for makedevs to 'buildroot-$(BR2_VERSION), which
would for example expand to 'buildroot-2014.05'.

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

This allows to have a device table for all directories/files and
another device table for the device files themselves. Both are needed
for static /dev, but only the first one is needed when
devtmpfs/mdev/udev are used.
We take this opportunity to move the documentation of the device table
format in a common location, package/makedevs/README.

There's no real reason to sync after creating the device nodes,
and it slows down the file system image creating quite a lot on
busy systems, so get rid of it.

The makedevs script did not always generate the requested set of device names / minor number series.
* If start != 0, then requesting (count) devices would generate only (count - start)
* If start != 0 && increment != 1, then requesting minors starting with (minor) would generate minors starting with (minor + (start * (increment - 1)))
This patch fixes the code and updates the usage text with extra examples.
