This allows to have a device table for all directories/files and
another device table for the device files themselves. Both are needed
for static /dev, but only the first one is needed when
devtmpfs/mdev/udev are used.
We take this opportunity to move the documentation of the device table
format in a common location, package/makedevs/README.
[Peter: simplify code slightly, fix indentation]

Four methods for the creation of device files in /dev are now
proposed:
- static method uses device table as before
- devtmpfs method enables this feature in kernel
- mdev method adds mdev starting script to the file system
and selects mdev itself for installation
- udev method selects udev for installation
All dynamic methods are based on devtmpfs, so one doesn't need to care
about /dev folder.

Until now, the location of the device table was specified by a
variable in board Makefiles. Unfortunately, this variable is not
accessible from fs/common.mk, since the target/ code is included
*after* fs/common.mk.
Anyway, the general idea is to move away from these boards Makefile,
and provide configuration option for things like the device table
location.
Therefore, this patch adds a BR2_ROOTFS_DEVICE_TABLE option which
allows to specify which device table should be used.
