In order to simplify the usage af a buildroot sdk, this series
wants to add a buildroot shell. This shell will export all the
variables and settings needed to do crossompilation without
actually writing a buildroot package.
Is very useful in the development phase where the developer needs
to compile and check a software the most tight way.
It's similar in its working to the shell present on others build
systems.

Install an helper script to setup a build environment based on buildroot.
It's useful when a developer wants to use a buildroot generated sdk to
build an external project.
Due to the nature of the intrusiveness of this script, a new PS1 is
installed to let the user understand that the current running shell is
not a normal shell.

In order to simplify the usage of a buildroot toolchain within
the buildroot shell, a "configure" alias is provided to call
./configure with the correct flags.
