package/libhttpparser: New package

http-parser provides a simple C API to parse HTTP responses and
requests.

This packaging uses the official Joyent repository.

[Thomas:
 - since we're always building the shared library, depend on
   !BR2_STATIC_LIBS in Config.in. We could build only the static
   library, but then we would have to do all the lib installation
   manually.
 - indent using tabs in Config.in
 - use 'make install' instead of handcoding the library installation.
 - use $(TARGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS) instead of just CC= and LD=.
 - use tabs for indentation in commands instead of spaces
 - add patch to fix reinstallation.]

+	help
+	  This is a parser for HTTP messages written in C. It
+	  parses both requests and responses. The parser is
+	  designed to be used in performance HTTP applications.
+	  It does not make any syscalls nor allocations, it does
+	  not buffer data, it can be interrupted at anytime.
+	  Depending on your architecture, it only requires about
+	  40 bytes of data per message stream (in a web server
+	  that is per connection).
