[Buildroot] [PATCH v7 1/1] package/swupdate: new package

swupdate provides a reliable way to update the software on an embedded system.

We use the latest commit of swupdate instead of the last release 2014.07 to
obtain several bug fixes and get support for the image downloading feature and
the JSON parser.

Note that swupdates has a reworked Kbuild/Kconfig system since the last
submitted v6 [1]. Now it has support for the 'option' and 'env' symbols as well
for the 'savedefconfig' target. This makes dependency handling much easier. We're
now able to pass which dependencies are available through the environment, as
already suggested by Arnout Vandecappelle in v2 [2].

Despite of the previous configurations, where all package dependencies except
Lua were selected by default, swupdate only requires now only one dependency
to get a reasonable firmware update system consisting of an embedded webserver,
a parser (based either on libconfig, json-c or Lua), and a handler for raw NAND
or NOR flash.

The user can modify this configuration by selecting the appropriate
dependencies before running `make swupdate-menuconfig`. The necessary packages
are described in the help text.

This package also installs a default website by default to get a working setup
in conjunction with the embedded webserver.

Note, swupdate provides its own versions of mongoose and lsqlite3:
  - mongoose is version 3.8 from year 2013
  - lsqlite3 is version 0.8 from year 2011

This patch is based on a WIP version submitted by Romain Naour, commented by
Arnout Vandecappelle [3].

+	  swupdate provides a reliable way to update the software on an
+	  embedded system.
+
+	  swupdate is highly configurable to fit the targets requirements and
+	  to minimize the footprint. The provided default configuration file
+	  BR2_PACKAGE_SWUPDATE_CONFIG will enable swupdate with an embedded
+	  webserver, a parser and a handler for raw NAND or NOR flash.
+
+	  The default configuration file builds a reasonable firmware update
+	  system with minimal external dependencies in my mind. If you like to
+	  use your own modified configuration, you have to select the
+	  necessary packages manually:
+
+	  * Select BR2_PACKAGE_LUA_5_2 if you want to have Lua support.
+	  * Select BR2_LIBCURL if you want to use the download feature.
+	  * Select BR2_PACKAGE_OPENSSL is you want to add encryptions support
+	    to the webserver.
+	  * Select BR2_PACKAGE_MTD if you want to use swupdate with UBI
+	    partitions.
+	  * Select BR2_PACKAGE_ZLIB if you want to deal with zip compressed
+	    archives.
