Create host-generic-package, host-autotools-package and
host-cmake-package macros. Such a macro is more intuitive to use than
the $(call ...,host) construct. Also it speeds things up by having
one less $(call ...) evaluation.
Also includes documentation update, but not for buildroot.html.
This brings the time for 'make -qp' (which is used by bash-completion)
down from 1.85s to 1.35s on my laptop.

The target package was only present because at the time 'nasm' was
packaged, there was a bug in the package infrastructure that prevented
a package from having a host only variant. This has been fixed since
then, so we can get rid of the useless dummy target package.

Users keep falling on this documentation, which is no longer kept
up-to-date with the developments. Get rid of it now.

This allows to automatically collect material that may be needed to comply with
the license of packages that Buildroot prepares for the target device.
The core of the implementation is made by the following parts:
- in package/pkg-utils.mk some helper functions are defined for common actions
such as generating a warning, producing info about a package etc;
- in package/pkg-gentargets.mk, within the GENTARGETS framework, a new
<PKG>-legal-info target produces all the info for a given package;
- Makefile implements the top-level targets:
- legal-info-prepare creates the output directory and produces legal info
about Buildroot itself and the toolchain, which mostly means just warning
the user that this is not implemented;
- legal-info, the only target that is supposed to be used directly, depends
on all of the above and finishes things by producing the README files from
the various pieces.

Update Config.in and .mk according to the new features.
Remove the patch handling build with uclibc without long double support,
which seems not necessary anymore.

When HOST_XXX_DEPENDENCIES are derived automatically from
XXX_DEPENDENCIES, a self-dependency is created if host-xxx is a dependency
of xxx. This was the case for miniperl.
Filter out the self-dependency.

MIPS EABI is a bare-metal ABI so remove it.
Also fix uClibc to really work with N32 ABI, which used the EABI knob
previously.

The help text of BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_DEFCONFIG is confusing: it seems to
point to the defconfigs in the buildroot tree. So explicitly refer to
the kernel tree in the help text.
