8a58e0238e Makefile: rename TARGETS to PACKAGES
For clarity, this commit renames the TARGETS variable to the more
meaningful PACKAGES variable. Indeed, only packages (handled by one of
the package infrastructures) should be listed in this variable, and
not other random non-package targets.

665e13c85e Rename BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to BR2_STATIC_LIBS
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.

315d29e159 support/script/scancpan: remove duplicated dependency
Dependencies from metacpan comes as a list of modules which is
transformed in a list of distribution for BR.  Different modules could
be included in the same distribution, so duplication is possible.

This can for example be seen with the HTTP-Daemon module, which would
get two times the dependencies on HTTP-Message without this commit.

acc76a6ef9 Change /bin/bash shebangs into /usr/bin/env bash
Not all systems have /bin/bash (e.g. NixOS[1] doesn't). Buildroot
already uses /usr/bin/env shebangs for other interpreters (perl,
python), so why not bash?

This changes only the shebangs used by Buildroot itself; stuff installed
to the target system is left unchanged.

With this applied I can run Buildroot unmodified on NixOS.

1fd8d9e4dd support/script/scancpan: add -test option
Perl modules can have three different types of dependencies:

 - configure/build time dependency which becomes host dependency
 - runtime dependency which becomes target dependency
 - test time dependency which is useless in a cross-compiling context like BR

Before this patch, test time dependencies are handled like runtime
dependencies.

After this patch, test time dependencies are ignored by default. The
newly added -test option allows to add them anyway if needed.

11c1076db9 toolchain: add option to copy the gconv libraries
The gconv libraries are used to translate between different character sets
('charsets', even 'csets' sometimes). Some packages need them to present
text to the user (eg. XBMC Gotham).

In (e)glibc they are implemented by the internal implemenation of iconv,
called gconv, and are provided as dlopen-able libraries.

Note that some gconv modules need extra libraries (shared by more than
one gconv module), so we must, when adding a subset of modules, scan the
installed modules in search of the missing libraries.

[Thomas: add general explanation in expunge-gconv-modules and fix
coding style.]

Perl extensions are loaded at runtime with dlopen(), so it does not
make sense to even build extensions that are written in C when
BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB is enabled. A Perl module written in C or with a

static build.

Therefore, this commit adapts the scancpan script to automatically
generate a dependency on !BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB when the Perl module
would not work in a static-only configuration.

b82f66cf40 graph-depends: support calling from recursive make
The graph-depends script calls make. If the outer make was called
recursively, or if it was called with '-C <somedir>', then the
environment will contain "MAKEFLAGS=w --". Therefore, the recursive
make prints 'Entering' and 'Leaving' messages, which clobbers the
output for dot.

To avoid this, add "--no-print-directory" to the recursive make
arguments. Since we require GNU make 3.81, we can be sure that this
option is available.

4d922634da support/scripts: generate a list of virtual packages
Generate an asciidoc table that can be included in the manual, that
lists the existing virtual packages, the corresponding symbols, and
their providers (and sub-options thereof).

The core of this change is the addition of a new formatter for virtual
packages. This formatter is a bit tricky, as it has to catter for a
bunch of corner cases:
  - provider is not a package, but is sub-options of a package
  - such a sub-option may be itself 'select'-ed by one or more
    other sub-options
  - legacy packages should not be considered as a provider

Those cases are real:
  - sub-options of mesa3d provide EGL or GLES
  - selected sub-options of mesa3d provide GL
  - udev is a legacy package, but it provides udev

fe696d7c65 support/scripts: introduce a symbol formatter to generate package lists
Currently, we can generate two different tables of packages:
  - a single-column table with the symbols' prompts,
  - a two-column table with the symbols' prompts and locations in the
    menuconfig.

For virtual packages, this is not enough, since we will have to display
more columns, with different content:
  - the virtual package name (but such symbols do not have a prompt)
  - the symbol name
  - the providers for the virtual package

So, instead of having a single function that knows how to generate any
table, introduce a formatter function that is passed as argument to,
and called by format_asciidoc_table(). Such formatter functions are
responsible for providing:
  - the layout of the table (number of columns, column arrangement),
  - the formatted header line,
  - a formatted line for a symbol.

What the formatter should ouput depends on its arguments:
  - if none are passed, the layout is returned,
  - if the header label is passed, it returns the formatted header line,
  - otherwise, it returns the formatted line for a symbol.

Two formatter functions are introduced in this changeset, to replace the
current 'sub_menu' feature:
  - _format_symbol_prompt() to display a one-column table with only the
    symbols' prompts,
  - _format_symbol_prompt_location() to display a two-column table with
    the symbols' prompts and locations.

This will help us to later introduce a new formatter to generate a table
for virtual packages.

[Thanks to Samuel for his pythonistic help!]

b2c75ecc5d support/scripts: who's responsible to decide what is a package
When generating the package lists, the responsibility to decide what is
actually a package symbol is currently split between the _is_package(),
the get_symbol_subset() and the format_asciidoc_table() functions.

The two latter functions check that an item is really a symbol, and that
is has a prompt.

While this is currently correct for real packages, this will no longer
be the case when we also generate a list of virtual packages, since they
do not have a prompt.

Move the responsibility to verify that a symbol is indeed a package symbol
to _is_package(), so it's all in one place, and makes it easier to change
for virtual packages.

f93edd823f support/scripts: do not display virtual packages in generated lists
If a package has both a 'real' and a 'virtual' definition, consider it
is a virtual package and do not display it in the generated package list.

This is the case for jpeg and cryptodev, that are virtual packages, but
also real (but empty) packages used to provide a prompt to enable/disable
a choice to select an implementation. In this case, we do not want to
list the virtual packages, but only their implementations.

So, consider packages that are both real and virtual as virtual packages.

e49d4f0c37 support/scripts: prepare handling virtual packages in generated lists
Prepare to tell apart real packages from virtual packages.

Currently, the code implicitly recognises only real packages, and
discards virtual packages, because of the heuristic used to recognise
whether a symbol is a package:

  - for real package:
    - symbols  : BR2_PACKAGE_FOO
    - .mk files: foo.mk
  - for virtual packages:
    - symbols  : BR2_PACKAGE_HAS_FOO
    - .mk files: foo.mk

The current heuristic is to check for each symbol if a corresponding .mk
file exists, by stripping 'BR2_PACKAGE_' from the beginning of the symbol,
converting the result to lowercase, and checking if a .mk file exists.

So, as a side effect, it completely misses the virtual packages [*], which
is pretty nice since we get a list with only real packages that the user
can indeed select and see in the menuconfig.

[*] Except for 'cryptodev' and 'jpeg' which are both virtual packages and
normal packages. Except they are not normal packages, they are used to
display a choice of the implementation to use. This case will be fixed in
follow-up patches.

Since we'll soon need to also output the table of virtual packages, we
need to teach the _is_package() function to recognise them as well.

This patch is the first step into that direction: it introduces a new
function _is_real_package() that is just a wrapper to _is_package(), which
gains a new parameter, being the type of packages to filter on.

No behavioural change is made in this patch, it is just a preparatory
patch.

d3fa2bebc7 support/scripts: prepare expanding the packages lists
Move to a function the code generating the package name from a
symbol's name, to avoid code duplication.

This is not used currently, but will be in a subsequent patch.

47aeebd956 graph-depends: rename the mode constants
This is ugly, since Python does not have enum constructs, so by moving
the 'type' of the constant ('MODE' here) to the beginning, we get an
artificial 'namespace' for the constants.
