[Buildroot] [PATCH 00/16 v2] core: add show-vars, a json-formatted equivalent to printvars (branch yem/show-vars)

["Yann E. MORIN" <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>]

Hello All!

This series introduces a new top-level command, show-vars, which like
printvars, prints all the variables of Buildroot, and like show-info,
does so in a JSON-formatted output.

The first 8 patches are preparatory cleanups in the core infras. They
were previously posted separately, but their raison d'être is only
really obvious with the introduction of this new show-vars.

Then the following 4 patches prepare the existing show-info helpers for
more genericity.

The 3 next patches add a few more items to show-info (I'm sneaking them
in this series, am I not devious?). There are hints in the commit logs
about something that will come in the future, that will make use of
those new fields (and now am I not teasing too much?).

Eventually, we introduce show-vars, which is pretty trivial in and off
itelf once all the preparatory work has been done...

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
