The BR2_DEPRECATED logic is a lot less useful than the legacy handling,
because the symbols just disappears without warning to the user. For
example, we had a few defconfigs that were using deprecated symbols
(which were not actually used because BR2_DEPRECATED wasn't set) so
these didn't build the expected code anymore.
Also, the idea behind BR2_DEPRECATED is that you can easily revive it
again if there is interest. However, it is relatively easy to revert
the removal of a package as well.
The deprecation is also more effort because it has to be removed twice:
once when deprecating, and once when really removing.
It doesn't make sense to add a legacy entry for BR2_DEPRECATED. Users
who actually used it will get legacy warnings instead.

The legacy support for the old BUILDROOT_DL_DIR and BUILDROOT_CONFIG
breaks down when make is invoked recursively - which is done in a few
cases, e.g. silentoldconfig, external-defs, ... These targets always
give a legacy error.
For BUILDROOT_DL_DIR, this is fixed by making sure that the original
value of BR2_DL_DIR taken from the environment is also exported again.
For BUILDROOT_CONFIG, this is fixed with an additional comparison of
the environment variable's value with the fake value that we introduce
ourselves.

To make the naming consistent (all user-visible options should be
prefixed with BR2_).
An entry is added to Makefile.legacy to warn users who have set
BUILDROOT_CONFIG but not BR2_CONFIG.
Still export BUILDROOT_CONFIG but pointing to some phony value, to
make sure that scripts that still use it fail in a predictable way.

As discussed in the BR developer days, we want to be more strict about API
changes in buildroot. I.e., we want to make it less likely that a user's
customizations break down after upgrading buildroot.
A first step is to make sure that the user is warned about API changes.
This patch introduces Makefile.legacy and Config.in.legacy, which will
issue clear error messages for such situations.
