In the Config.in file of package foo, it often happens that there are other
symbols besides BR2_PACKAGE_FOO. Typically, these symbols only make sense
when foo itself is enabled. There are two ways to express this: with
depends on BR2_PACKAGE_FOO
in each extra symbol, or with
if BR2_PACKAGE_FOO
...
endif
around the entire set of extra symbols.
The if/endif approach avoids the repetition of 'depends on' statements on
multiple symbols, so this is clearly preferred. But even when there is only
one extra symbol, if/endif is a more logical choice:
- it is future-proof for when extra symbols are added
- it allows to have just one strategy instead of two (less confusion)
This patch modifies the Config.in files accordingly.

In 9229b82d63 ('libcurl: needs MMU'),
the libcurl package was disabled on non-MMU systems, due to the usage
of the fork() function in the library.
However, a deeper inspection reveals that fork() is only used in the
implementation of NTLM, an obscure, undocumented, Microsoft specific
authentication method that apparently isn't common anymore. See
http://curl.haxx.se/docs/manpage.html#--ntlm.
Therefore, this commit re-enables libcurl on non-MMU systems by
explicitly disabling the NTLM support. If someone ever needs NTLM
support in Buildroot's libcurl package, it will always be time to add
a libcurl sub-option to enable it.
