For some reason, libffi installs some header files in
/usr/lib/libffi-<version>/include, which is a non-standard location
and therefore they do not get removed automatically by the
target-finalize logic. This commit adds a post-install hook in
libffi.mk to get rid of these unneeded headers on the target.

Support for ARC CPUs was added in libffi after 3.0.13 vesion was cut and up
until now no new release has been done. So to enale libffi on ARC we need this
set of patches.
These are corrsponding commits in libffi:
* b082e15091961373c03d10ed0251f619ebb6ed76 - Add ARC support
* 0f8690a84c874ec09a090c8c6adfb93c594acac6 - Rebuild for ARC additions
* d918d47809c174d62283306b282749f8db93661f - arc: Fix build error
The first patch was modified a bit (cut changelog part) to accomodate
changes not related to ARC between 3.0.14 and changes in question.

Since 97c687000 (pkg-autotools.mk: default host AUTORECONF{,_OPT} to the
target values) we automatically enable autoreconf for host builds if it
is enabled for the target, so these can go.

In order to be sure that we just deal with the includes related with
the actual package described into libffi.mk it is better to explicitly
specify the version of the libffi we deal with into the post install
hook.
As dev files are deprecated in target rootfs target post install
hook was also deleted.

It makes more sense to use a released version for 2013.02 rather than a
git snapshot.
The build system now correctly installs libffi.pc, so we can drop the
manual install.

We already had backported patches for the Blackfin and AArch64
support, and now we would have needed to also backport the Xtensa
support and the Microblaze support. This starts to get crazy.
Let's switch to using a Git version from Github, until libffi finally
releases a new stable version.
In order to achieve this, we also need to:
* autoreconf the package, so that a libffi.pc file gets generated
* manually install the libffi.pc file, because it doesn't get
installed by libffi Makefile, for some reason
* remove the part of the target post install hook that was messing
with libffi.pc, since it was modifying the one in STAGING_DIR
(which is odd for a target post install hook), and the libffi.pc
file is anyway not installed to the target anymore.

libffi is a new requirement for libglib, and as libglib has to be built
for the host as well, libffi has to follow.

Fixes the following error:
Variable 'includedir' not defined in '/home/daniel/buildroot/output/host/usr/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi/sysroot/usr/lib/pkgconfig/libffi.pc'
Also, use $(SED) instead of 'sed -i'.

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.

libffi is needed by the Python interpreter.
The libffi library provides a portable, high level programming
interface to various calling conventions. This allows a programmer to
call any function specified by a call interface description at
run-time.
