The inner-xxx-targets in the buildroot package infrastructures are
evaluated using $(eval) which causes variable references to be a bit
different than in regular make code. As we want most references to be
expanded only at the time of the $(eval) we should not use standard
references $(VAR) but rather use double dollar signs $$(VAR). This includes
function references like $(call), $(subst), etc. The only exception is the
reference to pkgdir/pkgname and numbered variables, which are parameters to
the inner block: $(1), $(2), etc.
This patch introduces consistent usage of double-dollar signs throughout the
different inner-xxx-targets blocks.
In some cases, this would potentially cause circular references, in
particular when the value of HOST_FOO_VAR would be obtained from the
corresponding FOO_VAR if HOST_FOO_VAR is not defined. In these cases, a test
is added to check for a host package (the only case where such constructions
are relevant; these are not circular).
Benefits of these changes are:
- behavior of variables is now again as expected. For example, setting
$(2)_VERSION = virtual in pkg-virtual.mk will effectively work, while
originally it would cause very odd results.
- The output of 'make printvars' is now much more useful. This target shows
the value of all variables, and the expression that led to that value.
However, if the expression was coming from an inner-xxx-targets block, and
was using single dollar signs, it would show in printvars as
VAR = value (value)
while if double dollar signs are used, it would effectively look like
VAR = value (actual expression)
as is intended.
This improvement is for example effective for FOO_DL_VERSION, FOO_RAWNAME,
FOO_SITE_METHOD and FOO_MAKE.
The correctness of this patch has been verified using 'make printvars',
'make manual' and 'make legal-info' before and after applying this patch,
and comparing the output.

This CMake flag is usually used to adjust compiler flags (like: -Ox, -g,
etc).
So, it makes sense for Buildroot to globally drive this CMake flags in
the cmake-package infrastructure.
However, if a package prefer overriding this default setting, it still
can via the <PKG>_CONF_OPT variable.

This CMake flag is used to enable tests. It may not disable the test
programs from being built, but it controls the test execution.
Since we don't care about building the tests (and usually disable them
when possible), make sure Buildroot won't try to run them.

This patch updates the generated toolchainfile.cmake to use ccache.
When toolchainfile.cmake is used inside Buildroot, using ccache during
the build is driven by a CMake knob: USE_CCACHE, automatically set by
the cmake-package infrastructure and reflecting the BR2_CCACHE value.
Since this toolchainefile.cmake file can be used outside Buildroot, and
this file also set a couple of things (among these: the sysroot cflag,
some pkg-config environment variables), it is important to set the
compiler variables as well to keep the consistency of the
cross-compilation configuration.
So, when it is used outside Buildroot, using ccache for the build is
driven by the ccache program availability.
Note that using ccache for the build is achieved by setting the *_ARG1
CMake variables to let CMake use ccache without failing in detecting
the compiler.

This patch introduces a toolchainfile.cmake.in template which is filled
by Buildroot.
Using a toolchainfile.cmake.in template file allows to avoid overloading
quoting and/or escaping and it becomes much more similar to the
resulting file.
This patch also cleans up the quoting style.

This commit makes the dependency from the target toolchain explicit.
This way we can buid from command line a package that use
inner-generic-package right after the configuration phase, example:
make clean <package-name>
Also remove TARGETS_ALL because the only purpose was to add toolchain
dependency so it's superseded by this commit.
To prevent circular dependency add the new variable
<pkgname>_ADD_TOOLCHAIN_DEPENDENCY to avoid adding the toolchain
dependency for toolchain packages.
This is also a step forward supporting top-level parallel make.

When calling make 'functions', the $(call) keyword is only needed if the
function takes arguments. For pkgdir, pkgname and pkgparentdir this is not
the case, so we can remove the call to make things more readable.

CMake offers a couple of places where one can specify how to build a
library:
- when you create the library target itself, by calling
add_library(target [SHARED|STATIC] ...)
- or globally, when you configure the build, by setting the
BUILD_SHARED_LIBS CMake flag.
* if the library target kind of library is specified:
it overrides the global setting BUILD_SHARED_LIBS;
* else, if the global setting BUILD_SHARED_LIBS is set:
it builds according to the BUILD_SHARED_LIBS flags;
* otherwise:
for linux, it will build static library (like BUILD_SHARED_LIBS
default is OFF).
So, we can consider the setting BUILD_SHARED_LIBS acts a bit similarly
to the autotools ones '--disable-static' and '--enable-shared'.
Thus, it makes sense for Buildroot to globally drive to CMake flags in
the cmake-package infrastructure.
It seems we never trigger this so far because:
- either we specified it in the *.mk file (e.g. opencv.mk);
- or it was already set per target by the projects' upstreams.
Followup patches will clean the remaining BUILD_SHARED_LIBS in the
package *.mk files.
