directfb-examples: remove options for each example
For some historical reasons, the directfb-examples package has one sub-option for each example, and the .mk files go through some great lengths to install only the needed data files for each example. This is a bit silly for several reasons: * In no other Buildroot package we do offer such a fine-grained selection of what the package installs; * directfb-examples are examples, they are therefore typically not meant to be used on a final production system, but more during development or for demonstration. Those are situations where size generally isn't that critical (all installed, the package takes 2.4 MB on the rootfs); * Those options and the .mk file logic has to be updated whenever the package is bumped; * Users can always use a post-build script to keep only the examples they are interested in. All the options are moved to Config.in.legacy. However, we could debate on whether this is actually useful, since the main option BR2_PACKAGE_DIRECTFB_EXAMPLES will now install a superset of whatever was selected before through sub-options.
