[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 01/10] package/pkg-cargo.mk: Introduce the cargo package infrastructure.

[Patrick Havelange]

In order to be package agnostic, the install phase is now using
cargo instead of install.

This is the V2 of the previously posted series :
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/buildroot/list/?series=156166&state=%2A&archive=both

A lot of changes following the buildroot developer meeting's
decisions from February 2020.

Needs to be applied on top of the rust 1.40 bump

+# Cargo package infrastructure
+#
+# This file implements an infrastructure that eases development of package
+# .mk files for Cargo packages. It should be used for all packages that use
+# Cargo as their build system.
+#
+# See the Buildroot documentation for details on the usage of this
+# infrastructure
+#
+# In terms of implementation, this Cargo infrastructure requires the .mk file
+# to only specify metadata information about the package: name, version,
+# download URL, etc.
+#
+# We still allow the package .mk file to override what the different steps
+# are doing, if needed. For example, if <PKG>_BUILD_CMDS is already defined,
+# it is used as the list of commands to perform to build the package,
+# instead of the default Cargo behaviour. The package can also define some
+# post operation hooks.

+# inner-cargo-package -- defines how the configuration, compilation and
+# installation of a cargo package should be done, implements a few hooks
+# to tune the build process for cargo specifities and calls the generic
+# package infrastructure to generate the necessary make targets
+#
+#  argument 1 is the lowercase package name
+#  argument 2 is the uppercase package name, including a HOST_ prefix
+#             for host packages
+#  argument 3 is the uppercase package name, without the HOST_ prefix
+#             for host packages
+#  argument 4 is the type (target or host)
