Libtool 2.6.x is starting to be used by upstreams when generating
release tarballs (e.g. cryptsetup-2.8.8). As LIBTOOL_PATCH_HOOK does
not know about it, ltmain.sh is left unpatched, so libtool relinks
libraries at install time and adds -L/usr/lib, which is rejected by
the toolchain wrapper:
i686-buildroot-linux-gnu-gcc: ERROR: unsafe header/library path used in cross-compilation: '-L/usr/lib'
The v2.4.4 patch no longer applies cleanly, so add a v2.6 variant,
rebased on libtool 2.6.2, and use it for 2.6.x versions.

Add patch to support newer (>2.4.2) versions.
Adjust patch logic to check for patchlevel greater than 2 (apply new patch) or
not (apply current patch).
Some people/distributions used unreleased versions, with the string being
2.4.2.x, this packages are AUTORECONFed and have to be kept like this since
the up-to-2.4.2 patch doesn't work, neither does the from-2.4.3 version patch.

Alter the libtool 1.5.x support patch to accomodate for wildly different
versions of ltmain.sh
Just make it alter incoming args from -static to -all-static which seems
to apply to all the different variants out there since argument parsing
is unlikely to change much.

After switching TARGET_LDFLAGS from --static to -static, one issue
appears: from the point of view of libtool, -static only means to link
statically against the 'uninstalled libtool libraries' (i.e the
libraries that libtool has built in the current package), but
otherwise links dynamically with the other libraries. To really get a
completely static build, you need to pass -all-static to
libtool. Unfortunately, -all-static is only a valid option for
libtool, not as a general LDFLAGS, so we cannot to TARGET_LDFLAGS =
-all-static without breaking virtually all packages.
As pointed out 10 years ago on the libtool mailing list, the current
naming of the options is very confusing and the source of issues, and
there was a proposal to change -static to have the behavior of
-all-static, and instead introduce a separate -lt-static to have the
current behavior of -static. But that never got merged, because it was
breaking the current behavior. See:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libtool/2004-11/msg00017.html
However, in Buildroot, when we pass -static, we really mean it, and we
want a completely static build. Therefore, this patch adapts our
ltmain.sh patches so that they alter the behavior of -static to make
it work like -all-static. The changes are small and quite easy to
understand, and have been tested to work fine with a small selection
of packages.
