This is a partial revert of the deletion of the IXP4xx
target: we restore the APEX boot loader so we can use it
for the NSLU2 and related targets.
The APEX upstream is as dead as it gets so I have applied
OpenWrts old patches on top of the never released
v1.6.10 version and forked it into an OpenWrt variant
on GitHub. If the upstream comes back alive I will
happily switch over to it.
The file refers to the external GitHub, I suppose when
integrating this patch the file should be copied to OpenWrts
file repository and the file link changed.

This target is still on kernel 4.9, and it looks like there is no
active maintainer for this target anymore.
Remove the code and all the packages which are only used by this target.
To add this target to OpenWrt again port it to a recent and supported
kernel version.

Do not put the apex images into the kernel build directory as this directory
might get removed after kernel updates while the apex packages InstallDev
recipe is not getting re-executed because it is still considered current,
leading to image build failures later on due to missing images.
To ensure that built bootloader images persist over kernel version updates in
the buildroot, put them into the new STAGING_DIR_IMAGE directory.

Note, that licensing stuff is a nightmare: many packages does not clearly
state their licenses, and often multiple source files are simply copied
together - each with different licensing information in the file headers.
I tried hard to ensure, that the license information extracted into the OpenWRT's
makefiles fit the "spirit" of the packages, e.g. such small packages which
come without a dedicated source archive "inherites" the OpenWRT's own license
in my opinion.
However, I can not garantee that I always picked the correct information
and/or did not miss license information.

As both of the PKG_SOURCE_URLs within the Apex Makefile appear to be no
longer functional, this patch changes the source URL to the OpenWRT
downloads page. Apologies for resubmitting, but there was a syntax error
in the previous patch ( http://patchwork.openwrt.org/patch/5025 ).
