build: set TARGET_ROOTFS_PARTSIZE to make combined image fit in 128MB
Change TARGET_ROOTFS_PARTSIZE from 128 to 104 MiB, so the whole image
(bootloader + boot + root) will fit on a 128MB CF card by default.

With these settings, the generated images (tested on x86-generic and
x86-64) have 126,353,408 bytes; the smallest CF card marketed as "128MB"
that I found a datasheet for (a Transcend TS128MCF80) has 126,959,616

454021581f build: add buildinfo files for reproducibility
generate feeds.buildinfo and version.buildinfo in build dir after
containing the feed revisions (via ./scripts/feeds list -sf) as well as
the current revision of buildroot (via ./scripts/getver.sh).

With this information it should be possible to reproduce any build,
especially the release builds.

Usage would be to move feeds.buildinfo to feeds.conf and git checkout the
revision hash of version.buildinfo.

Content of feeds.buildinfo would look similar to this:

    src-git routing https://git.openwrt.org/feed/routing.git^bf475d6
    src-git telephony https://git.openwrt.org/feed/telephony.git^470eb8e
    ...

Content of version.buildinfo would look similar to this:

    r10203+1-c12bd3a21b

Without the exact feed revision it is not possible to determine
installed package versions.

Also rename config.seed to config.buildinfo to follow the recommended
style of https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/recording/

f565f276e2 config: introduce separate CONFIG_SIGNATURE_CHECK option
Introduce a new option CONFIG_SIGNATURE_CHECK which defaults to the value
of CONFIG_SIGNED_PACKAGES and thus is enabled by default.

This option is needed to support building target opkg with enabled
signature verification while having the signed package lists disabled.

Our buildbots currently disable package signing globally in the
buildroot and SDK to avoid the need to ship private signing keys to
the build workers and to prevent the triggering of random key generation
on the worker nodes since package signing happens off-line on the master
nodes.

As unintended side-effect, updated opkg packages will get built with
disabled signature verification, hence the need for a new override option.

d03ef97c1b build: remove TARGET_IMAGES_PAD option
It's being used only in x86 target to produce combined images, where
it's mandatory to have padded images in order to produce working
squashfs combined images usable in QEMU.

Currently we're producing unusable x86 combined squashfs images
(18.06.1, 18.06.2 and snapshots) as we don't enable TARGET_IMAGES_PAD,
thus providing very small space for the overlay filesystem, leading to
the following with OpenWrt 18.06.1 r7258-5eb055306f images on x86 QEMU:

 root@(none):/# mount | egrep 'root|overlay'
  /dev/root on /rom type squashfs
  /dev/loop0 on /overlay type ext4
  overlayfs:/overlay on / type overlay

 root@(none):/# df -h | egrep 'root|overlay|Size'
  Filesystem                Size      Used Available Use% Mounted on
  /dev/root                 2.5M      2.5M         0 100% /rom
  /dev/loop0              113.0K      8.0K     97.0K   8% /overlay
  overlayfs:/overlay      113.0K      8.0K     97.0K   8% /

So we should rather ensure proper image padding in image generation code
and we shouldn't rely on config options in order to generate usable
images.

5cd49395d3 lantiq/xrx200: enable initramfs images
Commit eae6cac6a3 ("lantiq: add support for AVM FRITZ!Box 7362 SL"), but
one needs an initramfs image to flash OpenWrt from stock firmware (as
described in the commit log). This patch has the initramfs image built
by default.

Thanks to blogic (for pointing to the FEATURES declaration in the target
Makefiles) and Musashino on the forum for suggesting
config/Config-images.in needed editing too. While at it, reorder the
TARGET_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_LZMA declarations alphabetically.

This patch will result in initramfs images for all lantiq subtargets
that have the ramdisk flag set. I tested on the falcon and ase
subtargets, which lack that flag, to confirm they don't produce any
initramfs images with this patch - which they do not.

Given the limited scope of the lantiq (sub)target(s), blogic indicated
this should be OK.

cf7154db07 kernel: only optimized for size if small_flash
Add a new config option to allow to select the default compile

Exceptions to the above are:

    xway_legacy subtarget but was set for the whole target
  - mediatek, ramips/mt7620 & ramips/mt76x8 where boards should have

Configure variable SSP_SUPPORT is ambiguous for packages (tor, openssh,

Musl no longer uses libssp (1877bc9d8f), it has internal support, so
SSP_SUPPORT was disabled leading some package to not use SSP.

No information why Glibc and uClibc use libssp, but they may also provide
their own SSP support. uClibc used it own with commit 933b588e25 but it was
reverted in f3cacb9e84 without details.

589621b1c0 config: make CONFIG_ALL_* select other CONIFG_ALL_* options
Select the other CONFIG_ALL_* options in the hierarchy when the master
option is selected. Currently CONFIG_ALL_KMODS is not selected when the
build bot selects CONFIG_ALL_NONSHARED for example.

Now the rtc kmods should get build when CONFIG_ALL_KMODS,
CONFIG_ALL_NONSHARED or CONFIG_ALL and CONFIG_RTC_SUPPORT are selected
like it is done by the build bots for targets with rtc support.

7887a46f45 build: enable gzipping of images on x86 even if ext4 is disabled
There is lots of padding between the boot partition and the rootfs, so
gzipping is helpful here

doing the same thing.

ce731158c8 kernel: Hide kernel options behind a menu
We are starting to add more and more kernel configurable options, to the
point where the Global build options menu is not really usable anymore,
hide all kernel-related configuration options behind a menu.

48d71ab502 kernel: enable CRASH_DUMP on supported platforms
While we have CRASHLOG on MIPS it makes sense to support 'classic'
kexec-based CRASH_DUMP on x86 and arm platforms.

0b7ed65cec kernel: remove out of tree direct-io disable hack
Direct-IO support has to be enabled for the release build anyway, so
this hack is not worth keeping

7fe5963be0 build: allow specifying flow-control to grub on serial console
On the more sophisticated (i.e. deeper FIFO) serial controllers,
flow-control might be needed to avoid dropping output.
