Now that we have more options in terms of static/shared libraries,
switch from the existing default of building both shared and static
libraries to building shared libraries only (of course only on
platforms that support shared libraries).
Building both shared and static takes time (since the shared objects
must be built with -fPIC, while static objects are generally built
without, as -fPIC has some performance impact) and consumes a little
bit more disk space.
For example, a static+shared build of libglib2 takes 1 minutes and 59
seconds, with a final build directory of 96 MB. A shared-only build of
libglib2 takes only 1 minutes and 31 seconds (almost a 25% reduction
of the build time), and the final build directory weights 89 MB (a
reduction of almost 8%).
So, switching to a shared library only build brings some useful build
time and build size benefits.

This commit turns the single static option into a choice, which offers
various possibilities:
1. Build and use static libraries only;
2. Build both shared and static libraries, but use shared libraries;
3. Build and use shared libraries only.
On most platforms, (2) is currently the default, and kept as the
default in this commit. Of course, on certain platforms (Blackfin,
m68k), only option (1) will be available.
In addition to the introduction of the Config.in options, this commit
also:
* Removes the 'select BR2_STATIC_LIBS' from 'BR2_BINFMT_FLAT', since
with the use of a choice, we are guaranteed that BR2_STATIC_LIBS
will be selected when the binary format is BR2_BINFMT_FLAT, since
BR2_STATIC_LIBS will be the only possible solution in the choice.
* Changes package/Makefile.in to use the proper
--{enable,disable}-{shared,static} options for autotools packages.

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.

This commit adds a Config.in option to the "Build options" submenu to
enable paranoid checking of unsafe paths. This mechanism is added as
an option so that when we'll enable it in the autobuilders, people
trying to reproduce the build failures will be able to do so by just
downloading the configuration file. If instead we were leaving this
feature as an environment variable, everyone would have to remember to
pass this environment variable to reproduce build issues. And certain
build issues triggered by paranoid unsafe patch checking may not be
visible in the build output, for example when they happen during the
execution of configure scripts.
Since this option is fairly advanced, a new submenu inside "Build
options" is created, for Advanced options.

The current default for BR2_PACKAGE_OVERRIDE_FILE points to:
$(TOPDIR)/local.mk
This works well for in-tree builds, but is not very useful for
out-of-tree builds, when the Buildroot source tree may be shared for
different concurrent builds.
Also, it seems to be more sensible to have local.mk alognside
the .config file.
Hence, change the default for BR2_PACKAGE_OVERRIDE_FILE to point to:
$(CONFIG_DIR)/local.mk
Note that this does not change the current behaviour for in-tree

XBMC needs Java on the host in order to build, because it uses a

to parse C++ header files that define the API. SWIG outputs an XML file
that contains a complete description of the structure of the API. In the
second phase, the XML file is ingested by a Groovy (Java) program that then
creates C++ code that forms the bridge to the scripting language (Python).
The second phase is why we need java on the host.

In order to keep better track of when a feature got deprecated, and hence
when it can be removed, a new set of symbols BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_xxxx_xx is
introduced. These symbols are automatically selected when BR2_DEPRECATED is
selected, and thus are transparent to the user.
A deprecated feature will no longer depend on BR2_DEPRECATED directly, but
rather on the appropriate BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_xxxx_xx. If that symbol does
not yet exist, it has to be created in Config.in.
When removing a deprecated feature, one should also check whether this was
the last feature using the BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_xxxx_xx symbol, in which
case the latter can be removed from Config.in.
A followup patch will make sure the overview is added to the list of
deprecated features in the manual, so that a buildroot core developer can
easily determine which features to remove in a given development cycle.

This commit allows the BR2_EXTERNAL directory to contain Config.in and
Makefile code, which gets integrated into the Buildroot build logic:
- Buildroot automatically includes the $BR2_EXTERNAL/Config.in in the
top-level configuration menu.
- Buildroot automatically includes the BR2_EXTERNAL/external.mk in
the build logic, so it can for example be used to include other .mk
files that define package recipes.
This is typically intended to be used to create target packages in the
BR2_EXTERNAL directory, but can also be used for bootloaders, host
packages, or other custom make logic.
We also add a dummy Config.in file in support/dummy-external/ to
ensure that the source "$BR2_EXTERNAL/Config.in" line will point to an
existing file even when BR2_EXTERNAL is not used by the user.

This commit introduces the BR2_EXTERNAL environment variable, which
will allow to keep Buildroot customization (board-specific
configuration files or root filesystem overlays, package Config.in and
makefiles, as well as defconfigs) outside of the Buildroot tree.
This commit only introduces the variable itself, and ensures that it
is available within Config.in options. This allows us to use
$BR2_EXTERNAL in a 'source' statement in Config.in.
Following patches extend the usage of BR2_EXTERNAL to other areas
(packages and defconfigs).
In details, this commit:
* Introduces the BR2_EXTERNAL Kconfig option. This option has no
prompt, and is therefore not visible to the user and also not
stored in the .config file. It is automatically set to the value of
the BR2_EXTERNAL environment variable. The only purpose of this
BR2_EXTERNAL Kconfig option is to allow $BR2_EXTERNAL to be
properly expanded when used inside Kconfig source statements.
* Calculates the BR2_EXTERNAL value to use. If passed on the command
line, then this value is taken in priority, and saved to a
.br-external hidden file in the output directory. If not passed on
the command line, then we read the .br-external file from the
output directory. This allows the user to not pass the BR2_EXTERNAL
value at each make invocation. If no BR2_EXTERNAL value is passed,
we define it to support/dummy-external, so that the kconfig code
finds an existing $(BR2_EXTERNAL)/package/Config.in file to
include.
* Passes the BR2_EXTERNAL into the *config environment, so that its
value is found when parsing/evaluating Config.in files and .config
values.

Some bootloaders (such as Grub) need to be built for x86 (i.e IA32)
even if the target architecture is x86-64. However, when the target
architecture is x86-64, the cross-compiler generated by Buildroot is
not able to generate 32 bits code.
To solve this, we will rely on the host compiler being a x86 + x86-64
compiler. Therefore, this commit introduces the
BR2_HOSTARCH_NEEDS_IA32_COMPILER option, which tells the dependency
