Raspberry Pi hardware requires firmware that supersedes or is not
present in the standard linux-firmware distribution. These files are
maintained in the RPi-Distro project on github.
Several attempts have been made to reconcile conflicts between what's in
linux-firmware and what the hardware needs. The existing approach is
functional but not maintainable since it combines material from three
repositories into a single package that claims to be linux-firmware.
Remove the appends that change the content of linux-firmware for rpi
hardware. Add two new recipes that follow the RPi-Distro repositories:
* firmware-nonfree which forked from linux-firmware and replaces
content is provided as linux-firmware-rpidistro;
* bluez-firmware which forked from (very old) bluez and adds content is
provided as bluez-firmware-rpidistro.
The packages are named to make clear that these come from RPi-Distro,
rather than generic sources. Licensing attempts to record the state of
licensing as documented in RPi-Distro.

* use INITRAMFS_SYMLINK_NAME from new kernel-artifact-names.bbclass
instead of KERNEL_INITRAMFS
* the documentation says that KERNEL_INITRAMFS should be used to
define extension of initramfs, but in linux-raspberrypi.inc it's
defined only to 1 or empty based on INITRAMFS_IMAGE_BUNDLE variable
and I don't see any code in meta-raspberry or oe-core which would
use KERNEL_INITRAMFS to actualy name the initramfs artifact to create:
${DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE}/${KERNEL_IMAGETYPE}${KERNEL_INITRAMFS}-${MACHINE}.bin
used in classes/sdcard_image-rpi.bbclass
* also fix the assumption that there is -${MACHINE} suffix in:
${DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE}/${KERNEL_IMAGETYPE}${KERNEL_INITRAMFS}-${MACHINE}.bin
because that's defined as KERNEL_IMAGE_SYMLINK_NAME and some DISTROs
might use different value
* this depends on oe-core changes which were merged today:
http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=7d0ef0eaa1bfe97015a774c26f5791622e7e8b12

The attempt to Raspbian updated firmware blobs in packages separate from
linux-firmware introduced unresolvable conflicts with the standard
linux-firmware roll-up package. Revert to using an augmented
linux-firmware recipe that overrides and adds firmware from two Raspbian
repositories that have up-to-date images.
Closes#244

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_DRBD: Deciding whether to use the in-kernel DRBD module or the
external drbd recipe in meta-networking is a policy decision and doesn't belong
in our BSP layer.
CONFIG_LEGACY_PTYS: These are legacy for a reason. They're not enabled in the
defconfig so they shouldn't be required for rpi devices. Let's drop this here,
it can be added back in a distro layer where (if) needed.

We have a few recipes which only deploy files that go into the boot partition
and do not create packages to be installed into the rootfs. These recipes don't
need to run the usual packaging tasks so we can drop them to speed up the build
a little.
We also have a bunch of recipes that don't need the usual toolchain as they just
copy files or invoke native commands like `mkimage`. So to speed up the build a
little more we can set INHIBIT_DEFAULT_DEPS to avoid an unnecessary dependency
on the toolchain.

From patch message:
In some cross build environments such as the Yocto Project build environment
it provides an ncurses library that is compiled differently than the host's
version. This causes display corruption problems when the host's curses
includes are used instead of the includes from the provided compiler are
overridden. There is a second case where there is no curses libraries at
all on the host system and menuconfig will just fail entirely.
The solution is simply to allow an override variable in check-lxdialog.sh
for environments such as the Yocto Project. Adding a CROSS_CURSES_LIB and
CROSS_CURSES_INC solves the issue and allowing compiling and linking against
the right headers and libraries.

This packages only the firmware needed for the RaspberryPi boards. We use the
RPi-Distro as it's already maintained by the Raspbian guys and we get better
support for the RaspberryPi needed firmwares.

Currently, building linux-raspberrypi with "devtool build" breaks
because ${B}.config doesn't yet exist when do_configure_prepend runs.
Fix this by taking some logic from kernel.bbclass do_configure to populate
${B}.config before do_configure_prepend.
The full explanation for why this is necessary is fairly complex:
- In devtool builds, externalsrc.bbclass gets inherited and sets a list of
SRCTREECOVEREDTASKS, which don't get run because they affect the source tree
and, when using devtool, we want the developer's changes to be the single
source of truth. kernel-yocto.bbclass adds do_kernel_configme to
SRCTREECOVEREDTASKS, so it doesn't run in a devtool build., In a normal
non-devtool build, do_kernel_configme creates ${B}.config.
- Normally (e.g. in linux-yocto), it would be OK that do_kernel_configme
doesn't run, because the first few lines of do_configure in kernel.bbclass
populate ${B}.config from either ${S}.config (if it exists) for custom
developer changes, or otherwise from ${WORDIR}/defconfig.
- In linux-raspberrypi, we add do_configure_prepend, which tweaks
${B}.config. Since this runs *before* the kernel.bbclass do_configure,
${B}.config doesn't yet exist and we hit an error. Thus we need to move
the logic from do_configure up to before our do_configure_prepend. Because
we are copying only a portion of do_configure and not the whole thing,
there is no clean way to do it using OE functionality, so we just
copy-and-paste.

This command is done (with more correct flags) in kernel.bbclass's
kernel_do_configure. Since we inherit that and prepend to it, we don't
need to run it ourselves, as we end up just running it twice.

Currently, we are installing the rpi custom txt and fw files whenever
the meta-raspberrypi layer is included in bblayers.conf. This breaks
other machines that need to use the bcm43430 drivers but with alternate
txt or fw files.
Install these files only when "rpi" is in MACHINEOVERRIDES.
