It's often useful to get some information about a barebox image
before starting or flashing it. This patch introduces barebox
Image MetaData (IMD). When enabled a barebox image will contain
a list of tags containing the desired information. We have tags
for:
- the barebox release (2014.07.0-00160-g035de50-dirty)
- the build timestamp (#741 Mon Jul 28 15:08:54 CEST 2014)
- the board model the image is intended for
- the device tree toplevel compatible property
Also there is an additional generic key-value store which stores
parameters for which no dedicated tag exists. In this patch it
is used for the memory size an image supports.
Since there is no fixed offset in a barebox image which can be
used for storing the information, the metadata is stored somewhere
in the image and found by iterating over the image. This works
for most image types, but obviously not for SoC images which are
encoded or encrypted in some way.
There is a 'imd' tool compiled from the same sources for barebox,
for the compile host and for the target, so the metadata information
is available whereever needed.
For device tree boards the model and of_compatible tags are automatically
generated.
Example output of the imd tool for a Phytec phyFLEX image:
build: #889 Wed Jul 30 16:08:54 CEST 2014
release: 2014.07.0-00167-g6b2070d-dirty
parameter: memsize=1024
of_compatible: phytec,imx6x-pbab01 phytec,imx6dl-pfla02 fsl,imx6dl
model: Phytec phyFLEX-i.MX6 Duallite Carrier-Board

We have our file helper functions in several places. Move them
all to lib/libfile.c.
With this we no longer have file helpers in fs/fs.c which contains
the core fs functions and no functions in lib/libbb.c which are
not from busybox.

On several i.MX boards we register SDRAM with the values
from the SDRAM controller and also with values from the
device tree. This now issues a warning each time the board
is started. Revert the commit for now.
A better solution might be to check if the same SDRAM region
already exists before trying to register it again.
This reverts commit c9e2e08edc.

In order to be able to mark an stored envfs image with special features
(intentional ignore for example), we now can feed forward these flags.
By forwarding a '0' for the flags nothing changes because the envfs superblock
was already allocated with xzalloc.

Add a simple flag to envfs to be able to mark an external environment as
"not to be used".
This change should not affect existing systems, because the current envfs
implementation ensures the 'flags' member in the envfs master block is always
zeroed.

Compiling the tree with allyesconfig is helpful because different
compilers (gcc, clang) or static checkers (e.g. clang's scan-build)
can then process and check more code.
This patch introduces two new configuration symbols that Kconfig files
can depend on. That way, code that is only working where a cache or DMA
implementation exists can be opted out.

The menutree doesn't select CONFIG_GLOB, but it depends on it. Without
it will just hang. So let it select it automatically. Also remove the
dependency of CONFIG_GLOB on CONFIG_HUSH, because glob() will run with
the simple shell as well.
Also let CONFIG_MENUTREE select on CONFIG_GLOB_SORT. While is not
strictly needed, many people use menu/00-foo menu/10-bar menu/20-barf
to sort their menu entries. So select it out of convenience.

Crazy things happen if there are resource conflicts and a device probe
runs dev_request_mem_region. The dev_request_mem_region returns a
start pointer which is zero. The probe function doesn't check on this
and probing the device on zero base address.
To debug this in debug log level there are many other outputs. This patch
replace the debug print to a warning printout. A conflict should
normally never happen. If there is a conflict it's much easier to see it
with this patch.

I assume I am the only person knowing that barebox is able to

the command specific complete callbacks only work when no
option is typed already. For example "devinfo <tab><tab>"
correctly completes the devices, but "devinfo -x <tab><tab>"
does nothing. That is because the options are passed to
the input string of the completion handlers. Skip the option
string by finding the last space in the input string. This
is not perfect since "devinfo -f<tab><tab>" still does not
work, but it's better than what we have now.

This patch does probably too much, but it's hard (and very
cumbersome/time consuming) to break it out. What is does is this:
* each command has one short description, e.g. "list MUX configuration"
* made sure the short descriptions start lowercase
* each command has one usage. That string contains just the
options, e.g. "[-npn]". It's not part of the long help text.
* that is, it doesn't say "[OPTIONS]" anymore, every usable option
is listed by character in this (short) option string (the long
description is in the long help text, as before)
* help texts have been reworked, to make them
- sometimes smaller
- sometimes describe the options better
- more often present themselves in a nicer format
* all long help texts are now created with BUSYBOX_CMD_HELP_
macros, no more 'static const __maybe_unused char cmd_foobar_help[]'
* made sure the long help texts starts uppercase
* because cmdtp->name and cmdtp->opts together provide the new usage,
all "Usage: foobar" texts have been removed from the long help texts
* BUSYBOX_CMD_HELP_TEXT() provides the trailing newline by itself, this
is nicer in the source code
* BUSYBOX_CMD_HELP_OPT() provides the trailing newline by itself
* made sure no line gets longer than 77 characters
* delibertely renamed cmdtp->usage, so that we can get compile-time
errors (e.g. in out-of-tree modules that use register_command()
* the 'help' command can now always emit the usage, even without
compiled long help texts
* 'help -v' gives a list of commands with their short description, this
is similar like the old "help" command before my patchset
* 'help -a' gives out help of all commands

The old output of "help" was just producing a long list, that usually
scrolled of the screen (even on a X11 terminal). This list is more
compact, and also sorted by groups.
The old output format (plus grouping) is now available with 'help -v'.
Example:
Information commands:
?, devinfo, help, iomem, meminfo, version
Boot commands:
boot, bootm, go, loadb, loads, loadx, loady, saves, uimage
