pkgconf is a newer, actively maintained implementation of pkg-config that
supports more aspects of the pkg-config file specification and provides a
library interface that applications can use to incorporate intelligent
handling of pkg-config files into themselves (such as build file
generators, IDEs, and compilers). Through its pkg-config compatibility
interface (activated when it is run as "pkg-config"), it also can
completely replace the original implementation.
It is also lighterweight and does not require glib2, as pkg-config does.
On other distros, pkgconf is symlinked to pkg-config. For simplicity here,
it is renamed to pkg-config.real, as in the original package.
Initial results have been positive. As before, pkgconf works as long as
the pkg-config files point to the proper paths.

[backported upstream fix for Meson]
Signed-off-by: Petr Štetiar <ynezz@true.cz>
meson is a next generation build system designed to have good defaults,
simpler build files, and fast compilation.
It is built upon python and uses ninja for compilation. The latter
provides fast by default (parallel) and problem free compilation.
There are over 40 packages already successfully using meson. The next
commit will convert pkgconf to use meson compilation.

ccaaab1c04 says that this is in the
codebase because of libsigc++, which is not in the codebase anymore.
Neither in base nor in packages. It doesn't seem to be needed by
anything else either. GNOME packages have transitioned to using meson,
which does not use m4 files.
Tested local compile with CONFIG_ALL. No problems seen.

(cherry picked from commit 5876ba6460)
ninja is faster at building cmake packages than make, and according to reports
also more reliable at handling parallel builds
This commit includes a patch that adds GNU make jobserver support, in order to
allow more precise control over the number of parallel tasks
Enable parallel build by default for packages using ninja

This old ELF library dating to 2009 used to be necessary on MacOS but
is not required for building the kernel or tools since [1]. On Linux
systems, libelf is already an OpenWRT build-system prerequisite [2].
Presence of the older library can mask or conflict with the system libelf
and lead to build errors, as seen compiling Linux kernels since v5.8 or
host tools such as dwarves (e.g. pahole).
Remove the unnecessary tools/libelf library and avoid the related issues.

U-Boot requires xxd to create the default environment from an external
file as done in uboot-mediatek.
Build xxd (only, not the rest of vim) as part of tools to make sure it
is present on the buildhost.

Upstream switched to building with CMake. Adjust accordingly.
Reapplied patch as upstream changed the file format.
Added HOST_BUILD_PARALLEL for faster compilation.
Added cmake tool dependency and removed circular dependencies as a
result.
Adjusted dependent tools to use NOCACHE as they are needed to build
ccache.

SELinux support requires setting the appropriate SELinux security context
to files and directories, which needs to happen at build time in order
to support read-only root filesystem scenarios. In order to create these
security contexts, we will have to run some SELinux-specific tools on
the host machine, but that requires root access. This adds support for
fakeroot, which the build process will use to run the SELinux security
context creation and the image creation.

[update, fix macos build]
Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name>
Some autotools based build systems are using autoconf-archive scripts
and are expecting them to almost always be available. This is not
required for regular releases as tar balls generated for releases
commonly have existing configure script. This is rather intended to be
used with autotools.mk's autoreconf and in cases it is not always
possible to get release tar ball.
Including this adds little to no overhead in terms of build time as
those are just m4 scripts copied to an appropriate location.
