core/pkg-generic: allow packages to declare target-finalize hooks

2016-07-05T13:48:48+00:00

Currently, packages using target finalize hooks must remember that they need to register their hook in TARGET_FINALIZE_HOOKS conditionally (otherwise their hook will be triggered even if the package is disabled). In order to avoid this potential mistake, this commit introduces a per-package target-finalize hook variable, in which packages can register their target-finalize hooks, with the guarantee that they will only be triggered if the package is enabled.

Add the support of capability to makedevs as extended attribute. Now, it's possible to add a line "|xattr " after a file description to also add a capability to this file. It's possible to add severals capabilities with severals lines.
