efibootmgr was built with -fshort-wchar, which causes gcc to use
2-byte wchar_t instead of the normal 4-byte wchar_t. But this doesn't
work anymore with gcc 6.x, as it causes a build failure:
/home/test/autobuild/run/instance-3/output/host/opt/ext-toolchain/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-buildroot-linux-gnueabihf/6.3.0/../../../../arm-buildroot-linux-gnueabihf/bin/ld: warning: efibootmgr.o uses 2-byte wchar_t yet the output is to use 4-byte wchar_t; use of wchar_t values across objects may fail

Upstream solution was do simply drop -fshort-wchar:
3466fd05c8
So this commit simply backports this upstream patch.

The check-package script when ran gave warnings on only using
one space before backslashes on all of these makefiles.
This patch cleans up all warnings related to the one space before
backslashes rule in the make files in the package directory.

After commit 3ae07b4746 recently, efibootmgr now selects
BR2_PACKAGE_GETTEXT if the toolchain requires it.
gettext depends on wchar, so this dependency should be propagated as
well.
menuconfig currently complains loudly if you select efibootmgr, with an
error such as:
warning: (... && BR2_PACKAGE_EFIBOOTMGR ... && ) selects
BR2_PACKAGE_GETTEXT which has unmet direct dependencies
(BR2_USE_WCHAR)

efivar only makes sense on platforms that support UEFI.
UEFI is only supported by some architectures at the moment, being mostly
employed on platforms such as x86, x86_64 and aarch64. Some other
platforms such as MIPS and PowerPC may have some unofficial UEFI
support. UEFI is also limited to little endian architectures.
efivar was being supported in Buildroot without architecture
restrictions so far, however this has led to the creation of a number of
hacks in the recipes, mostly for architectures that are not supported by
UEFI.
In order to avoid spending more time to debug these failures and
maintaining more hacks for unsupported architectures, efivar can be
restricted to that platforms where it makes sense and where it is more
likely to receive some testing and actual usage.
The existing hacks for the now unsupported architectures are removed,
and the dependency is propagated to efibootmgr as it depends on efivar.

linux/nvme.h has been renamed to linux/nvme_ioctl.h since 4.4, and we
have a patch to handle that situation. However, some Sourcery CodeBench
toolchains use 4.4 kernel headers but don't have that header file
renamed, and that is causing build failures. So, prevent this package
to be built using those toolchains.

The efivar internal build system uses flags such as -std=gnu11 ,
-Wmaybe-uninitialized , -flto which are available in gcc >= 4.7 only.
These flags are passed both to target build and to build a host tool.
For the host part, this has been worked around by overriding
'gcc_flags', but doing that for the target would remove all flags that
upstream intended for the target build.
Buildroot doesn't support building gcc 4.6 in its own toolchain anymore
but it's possible to use an external toolchain with gcc 4.6 which would
be unable to build this package.
This patch adds a limitation on toolchains with target gcc >= 4.7 to
make sure that the flags are available in the chosen toolchain.

Following the removal of eglibc support, this commit replaces all
occurences of "(e)glibc" by just "glibc". Most of the occurences are in
package Config.in comments.
In addition, when the form "an (e)glibc ..." was used, it is replaced by
"a glibc ...".

A Linux user-space application to modify the Intel Extensible Firmware
Interface (EFI) Boot Manager. This application can create and destroy
boot entries, change the boot order, change the next running boot
option, and more.
The only issue found was that it was trying to include headers from the
host, so $(STAGING_DIR) has been prepended to the include path so that
the package finds the right headers.
efibootmgr depends on the libraries provided by efivar.
