Samuel Martin 5e84b8b73c manual: rework the whole documentation stub
The new skeleton of the manual as it has been thought:
1.  About Buildroot:
     Presentation of Buildroot
2.  Starting up:
     Everything to quickly and easily start working with Buildroot
3.  Working with Buildroot
     Basics to make your work fitting your needs
4.  Troubleshooting
5.  Going further in Buildroot's innards
     Explaination of how buildroot is organised, how it works, etc
6.  Developer Guidelines
7.  Getting involved
8.  Contibuting to Buildroot
9.  Legal notice
10. Appendix

It is easy to distinguish two parts in this plan:
- Sections 1 to 4 mainly address people starting with Buildroot
- Sections 5 to 10 are more focused on how to develop Buildroot itself

Most of the existing sections have just been moved in the hierarchy,
few were split and dispatch in, what i think was the relevant section,
and numerous others have been created.

Customizing the Busybox configuration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
http://www.busybox.net/[Busybox] is very configurable, and you may
want to customize it. You can follow these simple steps to do so. This
method isn't optimal, but it's simple, and it works:
* Do an initial compilation of Buildroot, with busybox, without
trying to customize it.
* Invoke +make busybox-menuconfig+.
The nice configuration tool appears, and you can
customize everything.
* Run the compilation of Buildroot again.
Otherwise, you can simply change the
+package/busybox/busybox-<version>.config+ file, if you know the
options you want to change, without using the configuration tool.
If you want to use an existing config file for busybox, then see
xref:env-vars[].
