The largefile distro feature has been enabled by default in oe-core
for a long time and, more recently, also in poky-tiny. Building
without the largefile distro feature receives little or no testing.
Many packages now enable LFS without exposing a configure option, so
there should be very little expectation that disabling the distro
feature will result in a distro which globally disables LFS.
Respecting the distro feature adds a maintenance over-head and may be
the source of configurations oddities (e.g. dbus-native currently
builds with LFS disabled for no clear reason - fixed by this commit).
Ignore the largefile distro feature more widely, as a first step
towards deprecating and eventually removing it.

These are recipes where the upstream has moved to GPLv3 and these old
versions are the last ones under the GPLv2 license.
There are several reasons for making this move. There is a different
quality of service with these recipes in that they don't get security
fixes and upstream no longer care about them, in fact they're actively
hostile against people using old versions. The recipes tend to need a
different kind of maintenance to work with changes in the wider ecosystem
and there needs to be isolation between changes made in the v3 versions
and those in the v2 versions.
There are probably better ways to handle a "non-GPLv3" system but right
now having these in OE-Core makes them look like a first class citizen
when I believe they have potential for a variety of undesireable issues.
Moving them into a separate layer makes their different needs clearer, it
also makes it clear how many of these there are. Some are probably not
needed (e.g. mc), I also wonder whether some are useful (e.g. gmp)
since most things that use them are GPLv3 only already. Someone could
now more clearly see how to streamline the list of recipes here.
I'm proposing we mmove to this separate layer for 2.3 with its future
maintinership and testing to be determined in 2.4 and beyond.

This fixes bug: [YOCTO #1783]
Fix populated image creation. Earlier subdirectories support
was broken, and files can only be placed in the root directory.
Now directory hirarchy is supported in the image. Also support
for long names is extended to directory names.
There are some outstanding issues as documented in the patch
header, these issues can be worked around by running
dosfsck tool after populated image creation. The dosfsck tool
is also part of this package.

It appears msdos image population and fat32 images are incompatible.
This reverts to the 2.10 behaviour of defaulting to fat16 instead of
using fat32 for large images, allowing image generation to work
correctly. This is a workaround and a proper fix is really needed.

Having one monolithic packages directory makes it hard to find things
and is generally overwhelming. This commit splits it into several
logical sections roughly based on function, recipes.txt gives more
information about the classifications used.
The opportunity is also used to switch from "packages" to "recipes"
as used in OpenEmbedded as the term "packages" can be confusing to
people and has many different meanings.
Not all recipes have been classified yet, this is just a first pass
at separating things out. Some packages are moved to meta-extras as
they're no longer actively used or maintained.
