The buildroot and SDK both require `libncurses-dev` to be installed on
the system, however the ImageBuilder uses precompiled binaries.
This patch changes the prerequirements checks to skip the
`libncurses-dev` part if running as ImageBuilder.

zstd with its default settings (compression level -3) compresses better
than bzip2 -9 (which is the default setting), and is an order of magnitude
faster.
I made the following measurements for the most common compression tools
(all standard Debian Buster versions, default flags unless noted
otherwise), using the debug information of a large x86-64 kernel with
ALL_KMODS:
* kernel-debug.tar: 376M
* kernel-debug.tar.gz: 101M, compressed in ~12s
* kernel-debug.tar.bz2: 91M, compressed in ~15s
* kernel-debug.tar.xz: 57M, compressed in ~101s
* kernel-debug.tar.zst: 86M, compressed in ~1s
With zstd, there is still some room for improvement by increasing the
compression, but the slight increase in compression ratio
(22.83% -> 19.46%) does not justify the significant increase in
compression time (about 5 times on my machine) in my opinion.
Note that multithreaded compression (-T argument) does not affect
reproducibility with zstd.

Running make with RECURSIVE_DEP_IS_ERROR=1 will cause a hard failure
when a recursive dependency is detected. This is useful to apply
stricter Ci tests, for example.

Instead of passing pkg-config location through a variable when building
qconf (make xconfig), prepend its parent directory to the PATH, as it is
being done for other conf targets.
Use a Makefile pattern rule to group all 'scripts/config/%onf'
(currently conf, mconf, qconf) targets in a single rule. Add -O2 to
CFLAGS when building them as well.

Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) is a structured naming scheme for
information technology systems, software, and packages.
This information already exists in some makefiles. In order for the
information to be processed further, it should also be added to the
manifest file and the control file of ipkg packages.
