[Buildroot] [PATCH] linux: add shorter shortcuts

[Mike Frysinger]

We only have one Linux kernel package, and "linux26-" is an anachronism
in today's world.  So add useful "linux-%" shortcuts to the "linux26-%".

Could you please update the documentation at the same time ? This way,
we could get rid of the linux26-% targets in next releases.

Thanks,
