We already provide BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_HOSTNAME to set /etc/hostname,
so a default /etc/hostname file isn't needed.

More importantly, if the user has explictly set BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_HOSTNAME
to the empty string, we would still end up with a /etc/hostname containing
'buildroot' which is unlikely to be what the user wanted.

This directory groups the following elements:
 * the default root filesystem skeleton
 * the default device tables
 * the Config.in options for system configuration (UART port for
   getty, system hostname, etc.)
 * the make rules to apply the system configuration options

Even though the skeleton and device tables could have lived in fs/, it
would have been strange to have the UART, system hostname and other
related options into fs/. A new system/ directory makes more sense.

As a consequence, this patch also removes target/Makefile.in, which
has become useless in the process.

[Peter: fixup TARGET_SKELETON settings / documentation to match]
