Hello All!

This is a counter-proposal to an eariler patch from Thomas, which adds
and fixes help entries for kconfig packages:

    https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/buildroot/patch/20210703194001.693553-1-thomas.petazzoni@bootlin.com/

Compared to that patch, this series ointroduces a generic help generator
for kconfig packages, and removes all existing custom help commands for
those packages.

As a cherry on the cake, it adds a new configurator to uClibc, which as
supported nconfig for some time now...

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
