Fiona Klute fe48905080 Makefile: add check-package-external target
The new target provides a convenient way to run utils/check-package on
any external trees, using .checkpackageignore files from the
respective trees if present.

While .checkpackageignore should be used as little as possible, in a
few cases adding overrides for false-positives to the affected files
is not feasible, a practical example of this is a Markdown file
misidentified as Python by libmagic (likely due to code blocks).

[Arnout: set ${ignore} explicitly to empty, in case it exists in the
environment.]

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at https://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
