commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=56cf5612937f14bcc7f2f339b6fb28ea3d635a67
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master
Finding the packages that select another one in a specific configuration
is not very trivial:
- when optional, the dependency is not expressed in Kconfig
- looking at the .mk files is not very nice.
Introduce a way to dump reverse dependencies of packages, i.e. the list
of packages that directly depend on that package. Like for direct
dependencies, we limit the list to the first-order reverse dependencies.
Document it in the main help; use the opportunity to also document
foo-show-depends.
