Four methods for the creation of device files in /dev are now
proposed:
- static method uses device table as before
- devtmpfs method enables this feature in kernel
- mdev method adds mdev starting script to the file system
and selects mdev itself for installation
- udev method selects udev for installation
All dynamic methods are based on devtmpfs, so one doesn't need to care
about /dev folder.

For some ABI's (like FLAT), we cannot strip busybox as the file format
does not support it and strip will abort with errors like 'File format
not recognized'. Since the toplevel already takes care of stripping
things, simply disable the busybox step.

This does set a few more vars in some steps that weren't set before, but
they should be harmless in the contexts in question. And the resulting
save in duplication is nice.

As discussed on IRC, this only needs to be disabled for very specific
configurations, and it can nowadays be done with a custom busybox
.config (CONFIG_INSTALL_APPLET_DONT), so get rid of the option.

Explicitly explain what the (default) install target does, so people who
don't know busybox details understands what the option does.
Notice: Busybox can be configured to create hard links or shell wrappers
instead, but by default symlinks are used.

Since udhcpc is part of busybox, it seems logical to move the udhcpc
script from skeleton to busybox.
[Peter: only install if not available in skeleton]

Now that TARGET_CC contains several space-separated words, it must be
used quoted everywhere.

From busybox git.
Devmem used to always map 2 pages in case the access would cross a page
boundary, which fails if you try to access the highest page.
