Carlos Santos 37c49cf2f4 qemu: add an option to enable user mode networking (SLIRP)
User mode networking is a useful feature that does not depend on other
packages. Add an option to enable it but keep it disabled by default,
for backwards compatibility.

QEMU is a generic and open source machine emulator and
virtualizer.
When used as a machine emulator, QEMU can run OSes and
programs made for one machine (e.g. an ARM board) on a
different machine (e.g. your own PC). By using dynamic
translation, it achieves very good performance.
When used as a virtualizer, QEMU achieves near native
performances by executing the guest code directly on the
host CPU. QEMU supports virtualization when executing under
the Xen hypervisor or using the KVM kernel module in
Linux. When using KVM, QEMU can virtualize x86, server and
embedded PowerPC, and S390 guests.

Enter here the list of QEMU targets you want to build. For
example:
System emulation | User-land emulation

config BR2_PACKAGE_QEMU_SLIRP
bool "Enable user mode networking (SLIRP)"
help
Enable user mode network stack, which is the default
networking backend. It requires no administrator privileges
and generally is the easiest to use but has some
limitations:
- there is a lot of overhead so the performance is poor;
- in general ICMP does not work (can't ping from/to a guest)
- on Linux hosts, ping does work from within the guest, but it
needs initial setup by root (once per host)
- the guest is not directly accessible from the host or the
external network
User Networking is implemented using "slirp", which provides a
full TCP/IP stack within QEMU and uses that stack to implement
a virtual NAT'd network.
Notice that this option does not disable other networking
modes.
