[Buildroot] [PATCH] dpkg: new package and host package

[Thomas De Schampheleire]

dpkg is the debian package manager. On target, it is useful to install
.deb files containing certain software. On host, it is useful to create
such .deb files. The creation of such .deb files could happen from a
post-build script, or from project-specific packages.
