Summary:                    [PORTABILITY] GNU getopt required
Description: 
If GNU getopt_long is required, busybox should include and optionally use
its own copy of getopt.c and getopt.h for systems which do not have this
GNU extension.

This calls for global config option to turn all getopt_long off in one
sweep.

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
We now have a CONFIG_GETOPT_LONG.
If you turn it off, then the long options are configured out (i.e. not
strictly needed any more).

As only run-parts and hdparm currently rely on getopt_long, i'm closing
this report. These two applets should be converted to use
bb_getopt_ulflags and not call getopt_long directly. run-parts needs to be
converted to use an llist_t for it's "-a" arguments while being converted
to bb_getopt_long.

patches are -- as always -- welcome :)
cheers,
