Paul Spooren 4ee3cf2b5a build: introduce ALT vendor/model/variant
Some devices are produced and sold under different names. To debloat
the buildroot but keeping it complete, new variables are introduced to
handle different namings. Below an example taken from a recent PR[0]

    DEVICE_VENDOR := Arcadyan
    DEVICE_MODEL := ARV4520PW
    DEVICE_ALT0_VENDOR := Vodafone
    DEVICE_ALT0_MODEL := Easybox 800
    DEVICE_ALT1_VENDOR := Airties
    DEVICE_ALT1_MODEL := WAV-281

With this commit the buildroot is extended to take care of up to three
alternative namings. The primary title plus alternatives names (if
defined) are shown in the `make menuconfig` dialog. Selecting on of
devices automatically selects all alternative names as they share the
same profile.

A list of the newly introduced variables:

    DEVICE_ALT0_VENDOR :=
    DEVICE_ALT0_MODEL :=
    DEVICE_ALT0_VARIANT :=
    DEVICE_ALT1_VENDOR :=
    DEVICE_ALT1_MODEL :=
    DEVICE_ALT1_VARIANT :=
    DEVICE_ALT2_VENDOR :=
    DEVICE_ALT2_MODEL :=
    DEVICE_ALT2_VARIANT :=

 -----------------------------------------------------

This is the buildsystem for the OpenWrt Linux distribution.

To build your own firmware you need a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case
sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack
of a case sensitive file system.

You need gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python3.5+, perl, make, find, grep, diff,
unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers installed.

1. Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to obtain all the latest package definitions
defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

2. Run "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks for all obtained
packages into package/feeds/

3. Run "make menuconfig" to select your preferred configuration for the
toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

4. Run "make" to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build
the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the Linux kernel & all
chosen applications for your target system.
