85fea5d953 pkg-cmake.mk: refactor the toolchainfile.cmake generation
This patch introduces a toolchainfile.cmake.in template which is filled
by Buildroot.

Using a toolchainfile.cmake.in template file allows to avoid overloading
quoting and/or escaping and it becomes much more similar to the
resulting file.

This patch also cleans up the quoting style.

[Peter: drop stdin redirect as suggested by Thomas]

9226a9907c Warn the user about the usage of output/target as the root filesystem
A very common mistake done by our users is that they use
output/target/ directory as their root filesystem. Even though this is
loudly documented in our Buildroot manual, people don't read
documentation, so it is not sufficient.

This patch adds a text file named
output/target/THIS_IS_NOT_YOUR_ROOT_FILESYSTEM which explains why
output/target isn't appropriate to use as the root filesystem. The
process is:

 * At the beginning of the build, right after the skeleton has been
   copied, support/misc/target-dir-warning.txt is copied to
   output/target/THIS_IS_NOT_YOUR_ROOT_FILESYSTEM

 * In the filesystem images creation code, this file is removed before
   launching fakeroot, and restored right after that, so that this
   file is not present in the generated root filesystem images.

Note that the file has not been added to the default skeleton for two
reasons:

 * It would have annoying to have in our source tree a file named in
   capital letters inside system/skeleton/

 * The proposed way works even if the user uses a custom skeleton.

[Peter: fixed typo]
