The "Dynamic using mdev" and "Dynamic using eudev" /dev management
methods are using devtmpfs, just like "Dynamic using devtmpfs only",
on top of which they add either mdev or eudev. But their names might
suggest they use mdev only or eudev only.
Clarify their descriptions by adding "devtmpfs +" to make it
unambiguous.

Currently, there are only two possibilities regarding the root account:
- it is enabled with no password (the default)
- it is enabled, using a clear-text, user-provided password
This is deemed insufficient in many cases, especially when the .config
file has to be published (e.g. for the GPL compliance, or any other
reason.).
Fix that in two ways:
- add a boolean option that allows/disallows root login altogether,
which defaults to 'y' to keep backward compatibility;
- accept already-encoded passwords, which we recognise as starting
with either of $1$, $5$ or $6$ (resp. for md5, sha256 or sha512).

The symlink created by buildroot for /bin/sh is the full path to
a shell. This does not match what busybox and other Linux
distributions do with using relative path symlinks. When handling
files on the host system this will point to the host system's shell
if present and not the target shell.
This is fixed by changing the /bin/sh symlink to use a relative path.

DES is long dead, it is insecure as hell, and virtually all known
crypt(3) implementations now all support at least md5.
Besides, the character-space of DES-encoded passwords are a sub-set
of the character-space for a clear-text password, so we can't easily
differentiate between the two. Since we're going to change the root
password prompt to support setting encoded passwords (as well as
clear-text passwords), we can't keep DES or we'd be unable to decide
whether we'd need to encode the password or not.
Remove DES encoding altogether (and add a legacy entry). The default is
still md5, and thus there's no backward-compatibility 'select' to add.

We used to specify explicitly serial port with all its settings
for init to instantiate getty.
This limits usecases when the same one rootfs could be used.
For example following cases won't work well with hardcoded
serial console settings:
* On the same board other serial port is expected to be used
* The same rootfs is intended to be used on different boards with
different serial ports (like ttySx vs ttyAMAx or even ttyx)
With this change by default we rely on "console" specified in
kernel's boot command line.
What is important getty will be set on the last console
specified in bootargs.
For example is a kernel comand line:
--->---
bootargs="... console=tty0 console=ttyS3,115200n8..."
--->---
This now will instantiate serial console on ttyS3 but not on tty0.

Since a while, the semantic of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB has been changed
from "prefer static libraries when possible" to "use only static
libraries". The former semantic didn't make much sense, since the user
had absolutely no control/idea of which package would use static
libraries, and which packages would not. Therefore, for quite some
time, we have been starting to enforce that BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB
should really build everything with static libraries.
As a consequence, this patch renames BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to
BR2_STATIC_LIBS, and adjust the Config.in option accordingly.
This also helps preparing the addition of other options to select
shared, shared+static or just static.
Note that we have verified that this commit can be reproduced by
simply doing a global rename of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to
BR2_STATIC_LIBS plus adding BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to Config.in.legacy.

The libblkid library in util-linux uses fork. While it seems
potentially possible to disable the parts of the library that use fork
(the only parts using fork are parts related to LVM and Device Mapper,
which are said to be legacy as they are replaced by sysfs based
scanning, instead of having to fork to run a separate process).
However, since libblkid is used by:
- e2fsprogs, which uses lots of fork all over the place
- udev, which most likely will also need fork
There is not much point in making libblkid fork-less. As a
consequence, this commit makes util-linux/libblkid unavailable on
non-MMU architectures, and propagates the relevant dependency to the
reverse dependencies of libblkid.
This fixes the e2fsprogs build failure seen on Blackfin. The failure
was due to a configure test of e2fsprogs which was trying to link a
small test program against libblkid, which failed because there was an
undefined reference to fork() in the libblkid code.

This patch bumps systemd to v207 but also declares it as a provider for the
udev virtual package.
Starting with systemd 183, udev has been merged into
systemd. The udev daemon is now installed as /lib/systemd/systemd-udevd.
This means that /dev management using udev is only available if systemd
is chosen as init system.
When configuring systemd, the following options are available:
- activation of systemd-journal-gatewayd, to access the journal via
HTTP.
- activation of extra features like journal compression and sealing.
Support for uClibc has also been removed because:
- upstream has no interest in supporting uClibc.
- using a shrinked libc brings no advantage, given the size of all the
programs included in Systemd. So using glibc does not matter.

When a package A depends on config option B and toolchain option C, then
the comment that is given when C is not fulfilled should also depend on B.
For example:
config BR2_PACKAGE_A
depends on BR2_B
depends on BR2_LARGEFILE
depends on BR2_WCHAR
comment "A needs a toolchain w/ largefile, wchar"
depends on !BR2_LARGEFILE || !BR2_WCHAR
This comment should actually be:
comment "A needs a toolchain w/ largefile, wchar"
depends on BR2_B
depends on !BR2_LARGEFILE || !BR2_WCHAR
or if possible (typically when B is a package config option declared in that
same Config.in file):
if BR2_B
comment "A needs a toolchain w/ largefile, wchar"
depends on !BR2_LARGEFILE || !BR2_WCHAR
[other config options depending on B]
endif
Otherwise, the comment would be visible even though the other dependencies
are not met.
This patch adds such missing dependencies, and changes existing such
dependencies from
depends on BR2_BASE_DEP && !BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC
to
depends on BR2_BASE_DEP
depends on !BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC
so that (positive) base dependencies are separate from the (negative)
toolchain dependencies. This strategy makes it easier to write such comments
(because one can simply copy the base dependency from the actual package
config option), but also avoids complex and long boolean expressions.
