d01e808bfe docs/manual: clarify the <PKG>_PATCH_DEPENDENCIES guarantee
Unlike <PKG>_DEPENDENCIES, <PKG>_PATCH_DEPENDENCIES only guarantees
extract and patch of listed dependencies, not build. Make this subtlety

231ad359bc package/systemd: use host-systemctl preset all to enable units
since v234 upstream recommands using systemctl preset-all to enable units.
* add a buildroot specific preset file
* use that file to disable getty@tty1
* make systemd depend on host-systemd
* remove all link-creating code that systemd does for us.

Most packages will not be affected by this change, but a few packages
were installing units without manually enabling them. Those packages
will now be automatically enabled.

The fact that those packages were not enabled is almost certainly a bug,
but it is a change of behaviour that needs to be reported

host-systemd also builds udevadm for the host. That means we no longer
need to depend on host-eudev to provide udevadm (that would conflict).

4e39730e44 core/legal-info: don't require overriding _LICENSE
Currently, the formatting we impose on the _LICENSE variable requires
that we also use the rarely used := assignment operator, which makes
the _LICENSE variable the only variable that users have to write with
this operator.

This really departs from the simplicity and consistency of using the
append-assignment, which we use for every other variable.

This is because the append-assignment operator surreptiously
introduces a space between the original value and the appended one. But
we can use this knowledge, to match any instance of a space followed by
a comma, and turn it into a single comma.

This allows users to now have a consistent use of the '=' and '+='
operators we use everywhere else in .mk files.

5ee815ab6a docs/manual: bump our gcc/g++ requirements to 4.8
Currently, we only require a gcc 4.4 version, which now is pretty old
(released in April 2009).  This requirement is not even tested nowadays,
with our oldest autobuilder having a 4.7 version only.

And even then, 4.7 is still old enough that it prevents us from
upgrading some packages. For example cmake 3.10+ requires C++11
constructs that were only added in gcc 4.8 (when C++11 support was
finally completed in gcc).

So, update our requirements for gcc to at least 4.8.

9155d1a38d docs/manual: clarify the reinstallation of a package
Since <package>-rebuild implies <package>-reinstall and
<package>-reconfigure implies <package>-rebuild, it is confusing
to mention the make and make <package> commands when describing
the restart of the configuration, compilation and installation of
the package.

Therefore remove the ", followed by +make+ or +make <package>+"
portions in the "8.3. Understanding how to rebuild packages" section,
and add a new paragraph clarifying how to include the rebuilt package
in the filesystem image, if that is necessary.

Back in commit 025b863e6f, the option
BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_RUSTC_TARGET_ARCH_SUPPORTS was introduced, to

(BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_RUSTC_ARCH_SUPPORTS) from the option that target
packages needing Rust should depend on
(BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_RUSTC_TARGET_ARCH_SUPPORTS).

Since the example in the manual is showing a target package, we must
use BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_RUSTC_TARGET_ARCH_SUPPORTS.

3f6e5fb470 package/pkg-meson.mk: allow packages to add extra [binaries]
meson does not allow passing path to helper programs (e.g. pkgconfig)

As such, allow packages to declare such a list of arbitrary entries to
add in the [binaries] section.
