[rmilecki: tested on GT-AC5300: boot, sysupgrade & 940 Mbps NAT]

This target does not activate CONFIG_PCI kernel configuration option, do
not activate the PCI feature. This will deactivate some PCI drivers
which are not building without PCI support in the kernel.
If PCI_SUPPORT or PCIE_SUPPORT are activated in the kernel configuration
the feature flag will be automatically set by the build system again.

CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME is a new symbol and has to be set to avoid:
Provide system calls for 32-bit time_t (COMPAT_32BIT_TIME) [N/y/?] (NEW)
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE needs to be enabled to make kernel start booting.
That raises a question: do we really need CONFIG_EXPERT=y ?

All bcm4908 devices are expected to have GPIO buttons to make relevant
package selected by default.
This "fixes" triggering failsafe mode.

OpenWrt was succesfully tested on the GT-AC5300 model. It's possible to:
1. Install OpenWrt using vendor UI
2. Perform UBI aware sysupgrade
3. Install vendor firmware using OpenWrt sysupgrade

bcm4908img is a tool managing BCM4908 platform images. It's used for
creating them as well as checking, modifying and extracting data from.
It's required by both: host (for building firmware images) and target
(for sysupgrade purposes). Make it a host/target package.

BCM4906, BCM4908 and BCM49408 are SoCs with 64 bit ARMv8 B53 CPUs.
Upstream Linux is slowly getting support for that SoCs family so it
makes sense to add target for it.
This prepares initial support for:
1. Asus GT-AC5300
BCM4908 based device (4 CPUs) with 1024 MiB RAM, NAND, 8 LAN ports.
2. Netgear R8000P
BCM4906 based device (2 CPUs) with 512 MiB RAM, NAND, 4 LAN ports.
Flashing info will come later as we learn how to generate proper images.
It isn't usable yet (it only produces a bootable kernel) so "source-only"
is used.
