linux: add fbtft kernel extension
Tested with RaspberryPi B+ and PiTFT Mini Kit - 320x240 2.8" TFT
(see [1] and [2]) and the following target configuration changes:
- cmdline.txt: add 'fbcon=map:10 fbcon=font:VGA8x8'
- add /etc/modules-load.d/fbtft.conf with 'fbtft_device'
- add /etc/modprobe.d/00-fbtft.conf with 'options fbtft_device name=adafruit28 rotate=90 gpios=dc:25'

[Thomas:
- Rename prompt of the Linux extension to "FB TFT drivers"
- Remove the full name of the kernel config options in the help
text. Giving their CONFIG_<foo> name is enough.
- Remove the mention of CONFIG_SPI_BCM2708, since this makes the
description RaspberryPi specific, while these drivers can work
with any SPI controller.
- Refactor the code in linux-ext-fbtft.mk to avoid duplication
between the < 3.15 and >= 3.15 cases.
- Make the fbtft package a promptless package, since there is no
point in selecting only this package, without the kernel
extension.
- Change the license to GPLv2, since it's kernel code.]
