Introduce a new location STAGING_DIR_IMAGE which is intended to be used by
bootloader iamges and similar image-related artifacts.
This directory is guaranteed to be persistent across kernel upgrades which
might involve a removal of KERNEL_BUILD_DIR and is guranteed to be bundled
with the image builder.

Rework the bundle-libraries.sh implementation to use a more robust approach
for executing host binaries through the shipped ELF loader and libraries.
The previous approach relied on symlinks pointing to a wrapper script which
caused various issues, especially with multicall binaries as the original
argv[0] name was not preserved through the ld.so invocation. Another down-
side was the fact that the actual binaries got moved into another directory
which caused executables to fail looking up resources with paths relative
to the executable location.
The new library wrapper implements the following improvements:
- Instead of symlinks pointing to a common wrapper, each ELF executable
is now replaced by a unqiue shell script which retains the original
program name getting called
- Instead of letting ld.so invoke the ELF executable directly, launch
the final ELF binary through a helper program which fixes up the argv[0]
argument for the target program
- Support sharing a common location for the bundled libraries instead of
having one copy in each directory containing wrapped binaries
Finally modify the SDK build to wrap the staging_dir and toolchain binaries
which allows to use the SDK on systems with a different glibc version.

With symlink tree some directories are just symlinked which
means IB and SDK end up with a symlink instead of an actual
directory; this fixes the missing files by dereferencesing
the directories instead of copying the symlinks.

The libc and kernel package files moved since the introduction of shared
packages and the changed output directory layout. This causes the generated
ImageBuilder archive to lack the necessary "libc" and "kernel" meta packages,
leading to opkg install errors later on.
Use the FeedPackageDir macro to figure out the proper source directory to use.

We allow to configure the version distribution name;
let's also use it for the tarballs (SDK, ImageBuilder,
and SDK).

This introduces a common macro to assemble the correct url templates to
avoid code duplication and have the feed config handling in a central place.

Change the IB packaging to only embed libc, kernel and kmod packages by default
and generate repositories.conf to refer to the remote package repositories.
Introduce a new config option CONFIG_IB_STANDALONE which restores the old
behaviour of building self contained IB archives.

The package index is generated on first use anyway, therefore it makes no
sense to continue shipping it.
Also sstrip the bundled host binaries when packing the IB to save some
additional space.

This commit introduces a new option CONFIG_VERSION_FILENAMES which causes
OpenWrt to embed the version number in generated image files, SDK- and
ImageBuilder archives.
The option is enabled by default if CONFIG_VERSIONOPT is set.
