The shared-mime-info package contains the core database of common
types and the update-mime-database command used to extend it.
The only thing that is actually needed in the target is the file
mime.cache. In order to generate that file, shared-mime-info is
installed into the staging-dir. The idea is that other packages might
add more mime-info files and these should be collected in
staging-dir. From there the mime.cache file is created using tools
installed in host-dir and copied to target.

Modifications by Thomas Petazzoni :
* Add a patch to the main Makefile.am so that the $(XMLLINT) variable
is used instead of hardcoding xmllint
* Apply the patch in the host build of shared-mime-info
* In the target build, pass an XMLLINT environment variable so that
the xmllint binary isn't searched in $(STAGING_DIR) but in
$(HOST_DIR)
