Skip building Makefile targets that aren't packaged: tipc, dcb, ifstat,
rtacct, lnstat, and man. Also, only compile targets needed for the current
build variant i.e. don't compile 'tc' when building an 'ip' variant and
vice versa.
These changes reduce typical build times by over 30%:
$ make package/iproute2/clean && time make -j8 package/iproute2/compile
(old)
...
real 2m24.985s
user 3m12.537s

Upstream iproute2 detects libbpf using a one-line $CC test-compile, which
normally ignores LDFLAGS. With NLS enabled however, LDFLAGS includes an
"rpath-link" linker option needed to resolve libintl.so. Its absence
causes both the compile and libbpf detection to fail:
ld: warning: libintl.so.8, needed by libbpf.so, not found (try using
-rpath or -rpath-link)
ld: libelf.so.1: undefined reference to `libintl_dgettext'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Fix this by directly including $LDFLAGS in the test-compile command.

This patch has been submitted upstream to fix an error reported by a few
users. One instance seen using gcc 10.2.0, binutils 2.35.1 and musl 1.1.24:
bpf_glue.c: In function 'get_libbpf_version':
bpf_glue.c:46:11: error: 'PATH_MAX' undeclared (first use in this function);
did you mean 'AF_MAX'?
46 | char buf[PATH_MAX], *s;

The latest iproute2 version brings various improvements and fixes:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/iproute2/iproute2.git/log/?qt=range&q=v5.10.0..v5.11.0
In particular, ip and tc now use libbpf as the standard way to load BPF
programs, rather than the old, limited custom loader. This allows more
consistent and featureful BPF program handling e.g. support for global
initialized variables.
Also fix a longstanding problem with iproute2 builds where unneeded DSO
dependencies are added to most utilities, bloating their installation
footprint. From research and testing, explicitly using a "--as-needed"
linker flag avoids the issue. Update accordingly and drop extra package
dependencies from Makefile.
Additional build and packaging updates include:
- install missing development header to iproute2/bpf_elf.h
- propagate OpenWrt verbose flag during build
- update and refresh patches
Compile and run tested: QEMU/malta-mips32be on kernels 5.4 & 5.10.
All iproute2 packages were built and installed to the test image. Some
regression testing using ip-full and tc was successfully performed to
exercise several kmods, tc modules, and simple BPF programs.

Feature detection doesn't recognize ipset v7 use on kernel v5.x systems
and thus disables the tc ematch function em_ipset.
