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.

Uses fork() in apr_proc_fork() which is used by almost all the packages
that use apr (log4cxx, subversion).
apr-util doesn't use fork or apr_proc_fork but it's of no use alone.

apr's configure doesn't try to guess which library is needed for
threading when cross-compiling hence this is never reflected in
apr-1-config, leading to a build failure such as:

This commit:
* Adds licensing informations
* Ensures the apr-1-config script gets fixed appropriately
* Remove the usr/build-1/ directory from the target, since it is only
used during the compilation of packages that rely on APR.
* Fix up a few paths in usr/build-1/ so that the compilation of
apr-util works properly on top of this apr package.

The apr library requires shared library support unconditionally, so
make it depend on !BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB, so that architectures that
support static libraries only do not make this package available.
