Add BR2_ROOTFS_STATIC_DEVICE_TABLE for the extra device table file(s)
to create device nodes in /dev, rather than complicated logic in
BR2_ROOTFS_DEVICE_TABLE, making it complicated to move between static
and dynamic modes.

Instead of the current mix between system config and filesystem menus.
At the same time rename 'Target filesystem options' menu to
'Filesystem images' as it now only contains options about image formats.

The special marker in etc/inittab might not be present with a custom
skeleton. At the same time make the option always active, remove the
hardcoded tty1/tty2 gettys and reword the option description slightly.

This allows to have a device table for all directories/files and
another device table for the device files themselves. Both are needed
for static /dev, but only the first one is needed when
devtmpfs/mdev/udev are used.
We take this opportunity to move the documentation of the device table
format in a common location, package/makedevs/README.
[Peter: simplify code slightly, fix indentation]

BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_GETTY_PORT has now a string type instead of choice.
This makes port configuration flexible and compact.

In sysvinit inittab the "id" field (first field) must be no longer
than 4 bytes, and is not used by init to determine the output
terminal. Therefore, we adjust the strategy used to modify the inittab
file according to the getty configuration.

The lo interface is marked auto in /etc/network/interfaces, so the
configuration of the loopback network interface is part of the
S40network init script. This causes the "RTNETLINK answers: File exists" error
message to appear at startup time.

Add ttymxc[0-2] to the list is the /etc/securetty of the Busybox skeleton.
This is useful for serial logins on i.MX based systems. The same serial
devices already appear in the generic "target_skeleton/".

If devtmpfs (the kernel-maintained /dev filesystem) is used, no
/dev/pts directory is created, causing the devpts mount to fail, which
in term causes stuff like dropbear to fail.

We have a special case for Xtensa, which was patching the generic
device_table.txt. Instead of doing this, we just keep a copy of the
device table, specific to Xtensa, with Xtensa specifities. The fact
that the patch wasn't applying anymore on the generic device table is
a sign that the existing approach wasn't working anyway.

It is not included in generic skeleton and very unlikely
that someone will use it on embedded devices.
AFAIK even Fedora does not include it in fstab.

Adjust default /etc/issue to print 'Welcome to Buildroot' like the
recently removed BR2_BANNER did, and adjust default hostname to be
'buildroot' instead of uclibc as we now support external glibc
toolchains as well.
Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
BR2_UCLIBC_PROGRAM_INVOCATION is a toolchain configuration option,
like BR2_INET_IPV6, BR2_INET_RPC, on which some packages
depend. Therefore, it should be handled like BR2_INET_IPV6 and
BR2_INET_RPC in order to work properly with external toolchains.
Since we move it out of toolchain/uClibc/Config.in into
toolchain/Config.in.2, we rename the option to BR2_PROGRAM_INVOCATION
(since BR2_INET_RPC and others don't have UCLIBC in their name).

As discussed on the list. It is already out of date
(BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_2009_01_RC3, BR2_PACKAGE_RAIDTOOLS), is the wrong solution
and breaks the make allyesconfig; make menuconfig / sed workflow.
git-svn (and git) doesn't handle empty directories, so add .empty files
to those dirs like elsewhere in buildroot.
Those empty directories are normally not a big deal, but the recent changes
to u-boot broke the build.
msh is currently the only good choice for uClinux but it doesn't
understands shell functions. In this case there is nothing to gain
by using shell functions anyway.

The Xilinx UART Lite and MPC5200 Programmable Serial Controller (PSC)
devices have dedicated major/minor numbers. Add them to the device
table data file so they get are present in the root filesystem
Mark empty directories in target skeletons with .empty files
and remove them while copying to target (like it's already done for
svn and cvs files) to better support version control system which don't
handle empty directories (E.G. git-svn).
