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.

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

Leverage the CSV files produces by size-stats (make graph-size) to allow
for a comparison of rootfs size between two different buildroot
compilations.
The script takes the file-size CSV files of two compilations as input, and
produces a textual report of the differences per package.
Using the -d/--detail flag, the report will show the file size changes
instead of package size changes.
The -t/--threshold option allows to ignore file size differences smaller
or equal than the given threshold (in bytes).
Example output is:
Size difference per package (bytes), threshold = 0

Currently, we forcibly override BR2_EXTERNAL when building the manual,
so as to avoid referring to packages therein from the manual.
However, when generating the lists of packages, we limit ourselves to
scanning for packages in (Buildroot's) TOPDIR and never search in
BR2_EXTERNAL. So, we do not really need to override BR2_EXTERNAL when
generating the manual to achieve the same result.
Furthermore, we're only looking for packages that are defined in the
sub-menu "Target packages", and never anywhere else, and especially not
in the sub-menu "User-provided options".
Finally, we're soon to completely eliminate use of BR2_EXTERNAL in
Kconfig altogether, so that would no longer have any impact anyway.
So, just leave BR2_EXTERNAL alone when generating the manual.

When building in a different output directory than the original build,
there will currently be a lot of ccache misses because in many cases
there is some -I/... absolute path in the compilation. Ccache has an
option CCACHE_BASEDIR to substitute absolute paths with relative paths,
so they wil be the same in the hash (and in the output).
Since there are some disadvantages to this path rewriting, it is made
optional as BR2_CCACHE_USE_BASEDIR. It defaults to y because the
usefulness of ccache is severely reduced without this option.
In addition to CCACHE_BASEDIR, we also substitute away the occurences
of $(HOST_DIR) in the calculation of the compiler hash. This is done
regardless of the setting of BR2_CCACHE_USE_BASEDIR because it's
quite harmless.
