In some situations, users may want to tweak the dynamic section of the
binaries (for example to add/set the RPATH to $ORIGIN/../lib).
Because it is not trivial to do it properly from the Buildroot
infrastructure, allow those users to use patchelf (e.g. from a
post-build script) to tweak binaries.
patchelf is able to:
- modify an existing DT_RUNPATH tags
- add a DT_RUNPATH tag if not already present
- do the above to the DT_RPATH tag, too
- set the path to the interpreter
- remove DT_NEEDED tags
- query a binary for the DT_RUNPATH/DT_RPATH tag, or for the
interpreter path
Does not really fix#7172, but this is an appropriate workaround.

To keep things consistent, this is done for Config.in.host there, even
though we don't have sub-menus there at the moment.

E2tools is a simple set of GPL'ed utilities to read, write, and
manipulate files in an ext2/ext3 filesystem. These utilities access a
filesystem directly using the ext2fs library.
[Thomas: add toolchain dependencies as needed, use full Git hash, use
github helper, add support for host version.]

Useful for for-build scripts to call parted, eg. to generate
partition tables and such automatically.
Since the primary goal is to use parted within scripts, we
do not need readline, so it is forcibly disabled.
Also, it does look unlikely that we need to manipulate LVM
volumes, so we forcibly disable support for the device-mapper.

genext2fs is built only if the user selected an ext2 root filesystem.
However, some use-cases can't live with the full target/ dir on the
root filesystem, and requires separate partitions (eg. for /usr).
In this case, the user would not select an ext2 root fs in the
Buildrooot menu, and would only generate a tarball of the rootfs.
This tarball would then be used from a post-image script to build
the actual required FSes.
But then, genext2fs is not built, since the ext2 root FS was not
selected.
As for the other filesystem generators, provide a host variant of
genext2fs (genext2fs is already host-package aware, so only needs
adding a Kconfig entry).

Most of the host packages don't have to be exposed to the user as they
are only used as build dependencies of target packages.
However, some host utilities, such as flashing utilities, image
creation programs, specific debuggers, might be useful and should be
presented to the user.
Therefore, we have a new global menu, which lists those host
utilities. These utilities are described in package/*/Config.in.host
files, which will be sourced by package/Config.in.host.
