This allows to automatically collect material that may be needed to comply with
the license of packages that Buildroot prepares for the target device.
The core of the implementation is made by the following parts:
- in package/pkg-utils.mk some helper functions are defined for common actions
such as generating a warning, producing info about a package etc;
- in package/pkg-gentargets.mk, within the GENTARGETS framework, a new
<PKG>-legal-info target produces all the info for a given package;
- Makefile implements the top-level targets:
- legal-info-prepare creates the output directory and produces legal info
about Buildroot itself and the toolchain, which mostly means just warning
the user that this is not implemented;
- legal-info, the only target that is supposed to be used directly, depends
on all of the above and finishes things by producing the README files from
the various pieces.

When HOST_XXX_DEPENDENCIES are derived automatically from
XXX_DEPENDENCIES, a self-dependency is created if host-xxx is a dependency
of xxx. This was the case for miniperl.
Filter out the self-dependency.

The help text of BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_DEFCONFIG is confusing: it seems to

the kernel tree in the help text.

Configuring libmad with --enable-speed compromises accuracy and can cause audio
clipping in some cases (heard on ARM platform with some loud MP3s), so give
users the choice of MAD optimizations.
The default config corresponds to the default behavior of libmad's configure.

The -fPIC breaks the purgatory of kexec (= the code that passes command-line
arguments to the kernel): kexec doesn't know how to handle the GOT and PLT
relocation entries.
There is also no reason at all to pass -fPIC. Shared libraries that require
it will add it to their local Makefiles, and normal executables have no
business with -fPIC (plus it adds overhead...).
The -fPIC was added by Bernhard Reutner-Fischer <rep.dot.nop@gmail.com>
in commit 8027784c. That commit adds sysroot parameters to CFLAGS.
There is no explanation why -fPIC is also added for x86_64.

The current structure of the LIBFOO_SITE_METHOD paragraph would make
it difficult to add documentation for the "file" and "local" methods.
There are enough possible values for LIBFOO_SITE_METHOD that
describing them in a sub-list seems to work well, which makes it
easier to add documentation for new methods.

If PKG_CONFIG_PATH is set in the environment, it allows pkg-config to
look for libraries outside of the buildroot tree. This is a problem
both for host and target builds. To avoid it, globally set an empty
PKG_CONFIG_PATH in the environment.
