Summary:                    "make BOARD=xyz menuconfig" / oldconfig etc does not
work
Description: 
buildroot allows you to do "make BOARD=xyz world" to compile using the
configuration file in local/xyz/xyz.config, but you can't call menuconfig,
oldconfig etc in this way.

The problem is that the name of the configuration file isn't being passed
to the kconfig tool (package/config/conf). kconfig uses $BUILDROOT_CONFIG,
so all that is needed is to set that environment variable.

Patch attached fixes this so that "make BOARD=xyz oldconfig" works.

"make BOARD=xyz world" also fails due to a few more hard-coded references
to .config. br2-board-config2.diff fixes those.
