[Buildroot] Patch to allow menuconfig specified target_skeleton dir and device_table.txt

[Eric Malkowski <eric@bvwireless.net>]

I'm posting this to see if anyone else might benefit from being able to 
select in the buildroot config a target_skeleton and device_table.txt file.
I find it convenient to be able to specify the following via the main 
menuconfig to be able to make my complete project:

buildroot.config
linux-2.6.28.x.config
busybox-1.13.x.config
uClibc-0.9.30.config
target_skeleton
device_table.txt

The first 4 come with buildroot now and are easy to override with your 
own, the last two can be specified in the "Target filesystem Options" 
submenu only when the "Custom target skeleton / device table" option is 
chosen as added by my patch below -- it enables two strings that default 
to the ones in target/generic and the user can override if they wish.

I just override the 6 items above with buildroot config and place the 
files pointed to in a directory and it gets everything I need to build 
up a setup customized for my AMD GeodeLX based boards.  Also -- I don't 
select any "Preset Devices" or "Generic System Support" options on the 
"Target Options" submenu and use a default ext2 rootfs to get a bootable 
kernel and ramdisk.

Note -- SVN revisions below are from my own that has buildroot imported, 
should apply fine to current buildroot.

If you guys don't think this is useful, that's fine too -- curious what 
you think.
