[PATCH] Added recipe for libconfig

[Stefano Babic]

libconfig can be used to parse a configuration file
in a structured language, but still compact and more
suitable for embedded devices compared to XML.

Please drop the PR when using r0 as this is the default.

Is there a package that's actually going to use this in oe-core?

Hi Ross,

no, there is not yet. I add the libconfig to my image and my apllication
make use of it. However, I see it as a general purpose library, that one
can decide to add or not to the own rootfs.

Is there some constraints in OE requiring that a lib can be merged only
if a provided package make use of it ?

Surely meta-oe would be a better place for this then?

Understood. Or maybe under meta-yocto/recipes-core ? I will prefer this
one because meta-oe is not part of the yocto distribution. Am I right to
post patches here or am I completely off-topic ?

meta-oe is the place for this tyoe of recipe. The Yocto Project is not a
distribution, rather a project to make embedded systems easier :)

Ok, thanks for clarification - I will send V2 for meta-oe.
