busybox miscellaneous fixes

From: Chen Qi <[email protected]>

This patchset mainly serves two purposes.
1) Switch to using busybox as the default login manager.
2) Fix to support FEATURE_INDIVIDUAL in busybox.

I'd really appreciate it if you could review it. And any comment or suggest is really welcome.

In this cover letter, I'll describe why we switch to using busybox instead of tiny login, how we do it and the final result of this change.

The reason is well explaned by Saul's comment in bug#4207.
(https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4207)
So I quote it here.
'''
tinylogin has been deprecated and the functionality ported into busybox, the size is smaller than tinybox. The issue to be concerned about is having busybox being setuid, a possibility is to use busybox as a separate binary. '''

That's exactly what this patchset does.
*) switch to using busybox as the default login manager
*) remove tinylogin as it's deprecated
*) add the ability to split the busybox binary into two parts, one with suid and the other not.

Following's a brief design. You could also see it on the bugzilla.
(https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4207)
Design:
1) Add a configuration fragment to the SRC_URI. The configuration fragment will be called login-utilities.cfg, as its main purpose is to enable the login utility of busybox.

2) set the default login manager to 'busybox' instead of 'tinylogin'

3) Add a variable, BUSYBOX_SPLIT_SUID, to control whether to split the busybox binary into two parts, one with suid and the other not. We default it to "1" to enable the splitting, but users could still override it to disable the splitting. After all, busybox has no internal support for this suid apps splitting, so there might be users out there who trust busybox and want just one busybox binary.

4) Add a configuration file, suid_config_list, to control which applications should be split into the suid binary. This list is first derived from the command below (splitted into three lines here for readability). for i in grep -E "APPLET.*BB_SUID_((MAYBE|REQUIRE))" include/applets.h | grep -v _BB_SUID_DROP | cut -f 3 -d '(' | cut -f 1 -d ','; do grep -i -E "config_(feature_|)$i(_| )" .config; done | cut -d' ' -f2

5) Busybox supports building individual apps, so the change above should still support this feature.

Here's the final result of this change:
1) FEATURE_INDIVIDUAL enabled
We'll have links on target like below.
/bin/ls -> /bin/ls.busybox
/bin/cat -> /bin/cat.busybox
/bin/su -> /bin/su.busybox
2) FEATURE_INDIVIDUAL disabled (this is the default behavior) and BUSYBOX_SPLIT_SUID enabled /bin/ls -> /bin/busybox.nosuid
/bin/cat -> /bin/busybox.nosuid
/bin/su -> /bin/busybox.suid
3) FEATURE_INDIVIDUAL disabled and BUSYBOX_SPLIT_SUID disabled
/bin/ls -> /bin/busybox
/bin/cat -> /bin/busybox
/bin/su -> /bin/busybox
