[Buildroot] [ PATCH Selinux v11] busybox: applets as individual binaries

From: Clayton Shotwell <clayton.shotwell at rockwellcollins.com>

The individual binaries option of busybox allows for the applets
that would usually be symlinks to be built as individual applications
that link against a shared library.

This feature is needed for SELinux to allow the applications to run
under the correct SELinux context.

The patch being added allows the individual applications to be
installed and will be upstreamed to the busybox developers.

The initial work for this change was done by Thomas Petazzoni
<thomas.petazzoni at free-electrons.com>.

Changes v10 -> v11:
  - Removed BUSYBOX_MAKEDEV_PERMISSIONS logic and added all 12 applets to
    BUSYBOX_PERMISSIONS variable.
  - Changed makedevs.c file to ignore optional files with type=F ( files which does not exist).

Changes v9 -> v10:
  - Removed 0002-applets-Add-installation-of-individual-binaries.patch as it was upstreamed.

Changes v8 -> v9:
  - No changes

Changes v7 -> v8:
  - Changed individual binaries comment to be !BR2_bfin (Suggested by
    Samuel)

Changes v6 -> v7:
  - No changes

Changes v5 -> v6:
  - No changes

Changes v4 -> v5:
  - Renamed to follow latest patch naming convention (Matt W.)
  - Updated to use BR2_STATIC_LIBS instead of old PREFERRED (Matt W.)
  - Added depends to make sure bfin can't build shared lib
    busybox lib for individual binary use.  Looks like shared
    lib creation doesn't error out but the objects don't get
    placed into the elf.  Then the trylink fails on linking
    the first individual applet. (Matt W.)
  - Made suid permissions setting dynamic for applets actually being
    installed (Clayton S.)

Changes v1 -> v4:
  - Did not exist
