  To: buildroot

This patch will add <pkg>_CONFIG_FIXUP variable to buildroot infra.

It's purpose is to inform buildroot that the package in question
contains some $(STAGING_DIR)/usr/bin/*-config files and that we
want to automatically fix prefixes of such files.

It is often the case that many packages call these
files during their configuration step to determine 3rd party
library package locations and any flags needed to link against them.

For example:
Some package might try to check the existense and linking flags
of NSPR package by calling $(STAGING_DIR)/usr/bin/nspr-config --prefix.
Without this fix. NSPR would return /usr/ as it's prefix which is
wrong when cross-compiling.
Correct would be $(STAGING_DIR)/usr.

All packages that have <pkg>_INSTALL_STAGING = YES defined and
also install some config file(s) into $(STAGING_DIR)/usr/bin must
hereafter also define <pkg>_CONFIG_FIXUP with the correspondig
filename(s).

For example:

DIVINE_CONFIG_FIXUP = divine-config

or for multiple files:

IMAGEMAGICK_CONFIG_FIXUP = Magick-config Wand-config

Changelog v2 -> v3
- added documentation of <pkg>_CONFIG_FIXUP variable (Stefan Fr?berg)
- modified sed substitution of prefix/exec_prefix to be done in one 
  line instead of two (Samuel Martin)
- added sed substitution of -I/usr/ to -I${prefix}/usr/ and
  -L/usr/ to -L${exec_prefix}/usr/ (Samuel Martin)

+On line 12, we specify that there is some fixing to be done to some
+of the 'libfoo-config' files that were installed during
++LIBFOO_INSTALL_STAGING_CMDS+ phase.
+These *-config files are executable shell script files that are
+located in '$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/bin' directory and are executed
+by other 3rd party packages to find out the location and the linking
+flags of this particular package.
+
+The problem is that all these *-config files by default give wrong,
+host system linking flags that are unsuitable for cross-compiling.
+
+For example:	'-I/usr/include' instead of '-I$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/include'
+or:		'-L/usr/lib' instead of '-L$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/lib'
+
+So some sed magic is done to these scripts to make them give correct
+flags.
+The argument to be given to +LIBFOO_CONFIG_FIXUP+ is the file name(s)
+of the shell script(s) needing fixing. All these names are relative to
+'$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/bin' and if needed multiple names can be given.
+
+Example 1:
+
+Package divine installs shell script '$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/bin/divine-config'.
+
+So it's fixup would be:
+
+DIVINE_CONFIG = divine-config
+
+Example 2:
+
+Package imagemagick installs the following scripts:
+'$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/bin/{Magick,Magick++,MagickCore,MagickWand,Wand}-config'

+So it's fixup would be:

+IMAGEMAGICK_CONFIG_FIXUP = Magick-config Magick++-config \
