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.

libcgi always builds both the shared and static library, which doesn't
work on architecture that don't support shared library at all, such as
Blackfin with the FLAT format. libcgi uses autoconf, but not automake,
and the Makefile is not of the highest possible quality, so this
commit fixes the problem by introducing a "STATIC" variable that can
be set from the environment. When set to a non-empty value, the
Makefile assumes it should only build the static version of the
library.
Note that this package is in desperate need of some care: there is one
single patch that mixes several changes together, it doesn't have a
description or a Signed-off-by line, and there is now a github project
for libcgi at https://github.com/rafaelsteil/libcgi/ that has the same
fixes.
However, for the purpose of the master branch, we're doing the most
minimal fix possible, by just adding this STATIC variable.

Thanks to the pkgparentdir and pkgname functions, we can rewrite the
AUTOTARGETS macro in a way that avoids the need for each package to
repeat its name and the directory in which it is present.

Now that <pkg>_INSTALL_TARGET_OPT always defaults to
'DESTDIR=$(TARGET_DIR) install', we can remove the
<pkg>_INSTALL_TARGET_OPT definition from a lot of packages.

We have been passing -q to ./configure when using 'make -s' for
packages using Makefile.autotools.in for some time. Do the same
for packages using autotools, but not using the
Makefile.autotools.in infrastructure, taking care to not do it
for packages with hand written configure scripts.

A C library will have been built by the toolchain makefiles, so there is no
need for packages to explicitly depend on uclibc.

they should be configured with --prefix=/usr and we then need to use
make DESTDIR=$(STAGING_DIR) install to get things installed into the
staging directory. The current situation for many packages, which use
--prefix=$(STAGING_DIR) results in the staging_dir paths getting compiled
into the binary itself.
This also adds in a pile of libtool fixups. Between broken pkgconfig,
broken libtool handling, and broken --prefix settings, its a wonder
things have worked as well as they have up till now.

* Added headerfiles to STAGING_DIR in usr/include/libcgi so that we
can actually use the library with the toolchain
* Added patch that fixes up the makefile.in and fixes a few bugs in libcgi
* rm the target-dir's so* in libcgi-clean
Most of the patch has been taken from the debian package.
Thanks to Lars Munch.
