[Buildroot] [PATCH v3 0/3] improve virtual package management

[Eric Le Bihan]

This patch series improves virtual package management by:

- using make control functions in dependency check.
- adding a tutorial to the user manual.

Changes v2 -> v3:
  - rebased on master.
  - removed already converted packages (lua, libegl, ...).
  - converted cryptodev and jpeg (reported by Yann E. Morin).
  - fixed comments on virtual package provider *.mk not being in the correct
    section of tutorial (reported by S. Martin).

Changes v1 -> v2:
  - rebased on master.
  - replaced 'infrastructure' by 'management' as this mechanism does not (yet?)
    provide a "$(eval $(virtual-package))" helper
  - converted code examples to plain sections (suggested by Yann E. Morin).

Best regards,
ELB

Eric Le Bihan (3):
  manual: add virtual package tutorial.
  cryptodev: convert to new virtual package management.
  jpeg: convert to new virtual package management.
