Hello,

Here is the third version of the post-image addition and customize
removal patch set.

Compared to version 2:

 * Slightly adjust the post-image config option prompt to use "Custom
   scripts" instead of "Custom script"

 * Add Acked-by from Samuel Martin

 * Slightly improve the documentation as per the suggestion of Samuel.

 * Add one patch to change "Custom script" to "Custom scripts" for the
   post-build scripts config option.

Best regards,

Thomas

Just like we have a post-build script mechanism that gets executed
after the build of all packages but before the creation of the
filesystem images, let's introduce a post-image script mechanism, that
gets executed once all filesystem images have been generated.

This can for example be used to call a tool building a firmware image
from different images generated by Buildroot, or automatically extract
the tarball root filesystem image into some location exported by NFS,
or any other custom action.

This mechanism of root filesystem customization has been deprecated
since a long time, so let's remove it now.

The order of the solutions to customize the root filesystem is
changed: we now mention the post-build script mechanism *before* the
custom root filesystem skeleton mechanism, because the former is
preferred over the latter.

In addition to this, we give a few more details about direct
customization of the root filesystem in output/target, and about the
custom target skeleton solution.

Since the post-image config option uses the plural for "Custom
scripts", do the same for the post-build config option, for
consistency.
