Also add hash file and set eprefix to / otherwise when busybox is around
we've got duplicate tar applications (/bin/tar for busybox, /usr/bin/tar
for full-blown) normally making busybox still win in directory search.
[Thomas: slightly improve the comment that explains why we pass
--exec-prefix.]

In order to simplify determining the right extractor tool for a given
file type, this patch introduces a make function 'suitable-extractor'.
Its usage is $(call suitable-extractor,filename), and it returns the
path to the suitable extractor.

Some toolchains, like the one built with buildroot itself, use hardlinks (for
example to link between the c++ and g++ binary). Unpacking such a toolchain
with the --strip-components options does not work correctly if the system tar
is too old (<1.17). Even recent releases of RedHat/CentOS still ship with
tar 1.15.
This patch checks for a suitable tar version (tar 1.17+) on the host system,
and adds host-tar to the host dependencies if none can be found.
host-tar is download and extracted as cpio.gz instead of tar.gz, to prevent
chicken-egg problem.

Thanks to the pkgparentdir and pkgname functions, we can rewrite the
AUTOTARGETS macro in a way that avoids the need for each package to
repeat its name and the directory in which it is present.

We have been passing -q to ./configure when using 'make -s' for
packages using Makefile.autotools.in for some time. Do the same
for packages using autotools, but not using the
Makefile.autotools.in infrastructure, taking care to not do it
for packages with hand written configure scripts.

A C library will have been built by the toolchain makefiles, so there is no
need for packages to explicitly depend on uclibc.

they should be configured with --prefix=/usr and we then need to use
make DESTDIR=$(STAGING_DIR) install to get things installed into the
staging directory. The current situation for many packages, which use
--prefix=$(STAGING_DIR) results in the staging_dir paths getting compiled
into the binary itself.
This also adds in a pile of libtool fixups. Between broken pkgconfig,
broken libtool handling, and broken --prefix settings, its a wonder
things have worked as well as they have up till now.
