Currently, packages using target finalize hooks must remember that they
need to register their hook in TARGET_FINALIZE_HOOKS
conditionally (otherwise their hook will be triggered even if the
package is disabled).
In order to avoid this potential mistake, this commit introduces a
per-package target-finalize hook variable, in which packages can
register their target-finalize hooks, with the guarantee that they will
only be triggered if the package is enabled.

Following the removal of eglibc support, this commit replaces all

In addition, when the form "an (e)glibc ..." was used, it is replaced by

The phrase "Supports several hundreds of packages" is unusual to hear in

"Supports several hundred packages" or "Supports hundreds of packages".
The latter sounds like a larger amount, so change the phrase to that.

Add a package-variable to store the package-specific make rules.
Although this variable would be seldom used, we still document it.
However, we make sure the documentation explicitly states that this
variable should not be used (if it needs to be, the submitter of a
package will be told so during reviews).

This reverts commit 84c825f8e8.
Turns out that the custom help is not available when the $(O) directory
has not been configure yet (i.e. when there is no .config already
filled).
Rather than trying to work around this limitation with dirty hacks, just
revert this feature. After all, this will not prevent an external.mk
from providing custom help anyway; it's just not gonna be advertised nor
displayed with the main help.

When using a br2-external tree, it is possible (as stated in our manual)
to implement whatever arbitrary extra make rules (such as flashing a
board, or extracting the rootfs in an NFS export...). Some of those
extra rules might be exposed to the user as new entry points that the
user can call by itself.
However, there is no way for the br2-external to advertise those new
rules in the help text.
We add the possibility to do so, by adding a new make rule, called
help-custom, advertised in our own help info.
It is up to the br2-external tree to provide whatever help text is
deemed necessary. The format of the help is completely free-form.
Note that we need to provide an empty, dummy help-custom rule, since it
is always advertised (making it .PHONY does not work). Since this rule
is empty, make gently reports that there is "Nothing to be done for
`help-local'", which is pretty well fitting when help-local was not
provided (either because there's no br2-external tree, or when the
br2-external tree does not provide it.

Thomas P. has sent a few big feedback mails recently that explain how a
patch should be formatted. Indeed, this was not explained much in the
manual, so add a section that explains how patches should be formatted.
This is based heavily on the feedback that Thomas P. gave. Also,
specific examples for new packages and version bumps are added.
This will allow us to refer to
https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
in the future instead of composing long mails.
