The three packages base-files, libc and kernel are special, the former
can't be upgraded in place since it's content are modified on startup,
the latter two are virtual packages only used as constraints for the
package manager.
Historically base-files was "locked" via a special OPKG function, the
latter two were hidden from the package index and thereby never picked
as possible upgrade.
Time moved forward and we now have APK and tools like OWUT. The latter
compares available packages with installed packages and generates user
readable output, requiring versions for libc and kernel, too. At the
same time, APK uses a different looking mechanism, which is set during
installation instead of part of the package metadata.
In short, this patch adds version constraints to the three packages,
allowing them to be part of the package index.

Different from OPKG, APK uses a deterministic version schema which chips
the version into chunks and compares them individually. This enforces a
certain schema which was previously entirely flexible.
- Releases are added at the very and end prefixed with an `r` like
`1.2.3-r3`.
- Hashes are prefixed with a `~` like `1.2.3~abc123`.
- Dates become semantic versions, like `2024.04.01`
- Extra tags are possible like `_git`, `_alpha` and more.

Add modules.builtin.modinfo to the kernel package, to support presence
testing using module aliases and printing module details with 'modinfo'.
With related kmodloader changes this adds ~2 KB to compressed image sizes.
root@OpenWrt:/# modinfo unix
name: unix
filename: (builtin)
alias: net-pf-1
license: GPL
root@OpenWrt:/# modprobe net-pf-1 && echo SUCCESS || echo FAIL
SUCCESS

Add modules.builtin to the kernel package for improved handling of loadable
and builtin modules. As with other distros, this allows 'modprobe <module>'
to consistently return success for both loaded/built-in modules, a useful
feature for presence-testing.
Given OpenWrt's few built-in modules, this change and related kmodloader
support add ~1 KB to the compressed image size.
Using sch_fq_codel (builtin) and sch_cake (loadable) for example:
root@OpenWrt:/# modprobe sch_fq_codel && echo SUCCESS || echo FAIL
SUCCESS
root@OpenWrt:/# modprobe sch_cake && echo SUCCESS || echo FAIL
SUCCESS
root@OpenWrt:/# rmmod sch_fq_codel
module is builtin

Some packages won't ever have something to patch as they normally
install files or are meta-packages.
For these special packages, disable QUILT refresh.

Before this commit, it was assumed that mkhash is in the PATH. While
this was fine for the normal build workflow, this led to some issues if
make TOPDIR="$(pwd)" -C "$pkgdir" compile
was called manually. In most of the cases, I just saw warnings like this:
make: Entering directory '/home/.../package/gluon-status-page'
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
bash: line 1: mkhash: command not found
[...]
While these were only warnings and the package still compiled sucessfully,
I also observed that some package even fail to build because of this.
After applying this commit, the variable $(MKHASH) is introduced. This
variable points to $(STAGING_DIR_HOST)/bin/mkhash, which is always the
correct path.

Since the kernel makefile is using .ONESHELL, we need to add -e to
.SHELLFLAGS so errors are not ignored.
