Romain Naour 575493c186 board/qemu: add post-image script for gitlab qemu testing
This commit add a post-image script to be used by each qemu board
defconfig in order to generate start-qemu.sh in BINARIES_DIR. The
start-qemu.sh script can be used by Buildroot user to start Qemu
or by a gitlab CI.

To find the correct qemu command line, we use the second post script
argument which must contain "$(BR2_DEFCONFIG)"

    BR2_ROOTFS_POST_SCRIPT_ARGS="$(BR2_DEFCONFIG)"

The post-image script expect something like
"/path/to/qemu_aarch64_virt_defconfig" in BR2_DEFCONFIG.

Doing a basename allow to retrieve the name of the defconfig file that
should match on on the "tag" previously introduced in readme.txt files.

For running in the CI, as well as running from a remote machine (e.g. on
a remote build machine), it is better not to start in graphical mode,
but only with the serial line attached to the terminal. The post-build
script prepares two sets of arguments for each case, graphical or
serial, and stores them in the start-qemu.sh script, which then decodes
which to use, based on an argument on the command line (default is still
graphical)

sh4/sh4eb needs a special handling by adding "-serial stdio -display
none"; others only require "-nographics". Some qemu command lines
already contain "-serial stdio", but that does not play nicely with
"-nographics", we remove that when going serial-only (although this
might seem counter-intuitive).

Finally, we ensure the script uses our qemu-system (if it was built).

[yann.morin.1998@free.fr:
  - drop the knowledge about gitlab-ci, replace with an argument to
    pass to start-qemu.sh
  - adapt the commit log accordingly

README

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
