e23a4bc752 Move rootfs content options under system configuration
Instead of the current mix between system config and filesystem menus.

At the same time rename 'Target filesystem options' menu to
'Filesystem images' as it now only contains options about image formats.

4e005c47e5 Allow several device tables and split in two parts our device table
This allows to have a device table for all directories/files and
another device table for the device files themselves. Both are needed
for static /dev, but only the first one is needed when
devtmpfs/mdev/udev are used.

We take this opportunity to move the documentation of the device table
format in a common location, package/makedevs/README.

[Peter: simplify code slightly, fix indentation]

726b15f64a Create menu entry to select device creation method
Four methods for the creation of device files in /dev are now
proposed:

 - static method uses device table as before
 - devtmpfs method enables this feature in kernel
 - mdev method adds mdev starting script to the file system
    and selects mdev itself for installation
 - udev method selects udev for installation

All dynamic methods are based on devtmpfs, so one doesn't need to care
about /dev folder.

64ec20e6c0 fs: change the way the device table is configured
Until now, the location of the device table was specified by a
variable in board Makefiles. Unfortunately, this variable is not
accessible from fs/common.mk, since the target/ code is included
*after* fs/common.mk.

Anyway, the general idea is to move away from these boards Makefile,
and provide configuration option for things like the device table
location.

Therefore, this patch adds a BR2_ROOTFS_DEVICE_TABLE option which
allows to specify which device table should be used.
