Create a common BR2_COPYTO to prepare to replace
all the different COPYTOs spread out all over Buildroot. Generate COPY_FILE subroutine which can be used to copy a file. $(COPY_FILE , file, directory, filename) This will copy to binary dir and to the selected copy dir if set in new config (intended to replace all old COPYTO configs) This is overridden by BUILDROOT_COPYTO, if set into the environment.
