A lot of our recipes had short one-line DESCRIPTION values and no
SUMMARY value set. In this case it's much better to just set SUMMARY
since DESCRIPTION is defaulted from SUMMARY anyway and then the SUMMARY
is at least useful. I also took the opportunity to fix up a lot of the
new SUMMARY values, making them concisely explain the function of the
recipe / package where possible.

The install boot option was giving the following error when one tried to
install the live image on a permanent storage of a BSP.
cat: write error Invalid argument
Installation image failed
sh: can't access tty: job control turned off
Further digging into the issue, found out that the install script was trying
to do this:
cat /proc/mounts > /etc/mtab
And in the base-files recipe the /etc/mtab is made soft link to /proc/mounts.
So the cat command was failing to write on /etc/mtab. As the contents of
the /proc/mounts is already reflected in the /etc/mtab file due to the
symlink-ing, there is no need for this step to recreate /etc/mtab in the
install script. So just removing this unnecessary step, which solves the
install issue of the live images.
Fixes this bug:

Fixes [YOCTO #3870] atom-pc - cannot boot image on netbook after install
The problem here is that grub2 is installed but a grub 1 menu.lst is
created at install time. At boot, grub2 doesn't find a grub.cfg file and
drops to the grub shell.
This happens because the installer is looking for 40_custom (a grub2
file) on the rootfs, but grub2 isn't installed on the rootfs. It exists
in the initramfs. Patching the installer to look on the initramfs
resolves the problem.
Note that the problem may have occurred if grub2 used to be installed on
the rootfs but was later removed. In any case, the installer is HORRIBLE
and really needs to be completely redesigned as part of the deployment
effort. For now, this should get the live image installer limping along
again.
Tested on a Toshiba NB-305.

Fixes [YOCTO #2385]
The installer only searches for hd[ab] sd[ab]. Some newer BSPs have mmcblk
devices that should be used as the install target. These devices also have a
partition prefix (mmcblk0p1 instead of mmcblk01). As they are detected
asynchronously, it is necessary to add the rootwait kernel parameter to avoid
a race condition trying to mount the root device.
As BSPs like the FRI2 and the sys940x have mmc devices and will have a 1.2
release, we should push this to 1.2.1. The changes are perfectly contained and
easily verified.
Test for an mmcblk device and add the p partition prefix if necessary. Add the
rootwait kernel parameter when an mmcblk device is detected. Replace the series
of explicit umount commands with a single umount using a wildcard. This will
find all the partitions and will not try to unmount non-existant devices. Avoid
copy and paste errors by replacing /dev/${device}${pX} references with the
previously assigned rootfs, bootfs, and swap variables.
These changes have been tested on the FRI2 Sato image which installed to
/dev/mmcblk0 as well as the N450 Sato image which installed to /dev/sda. Both
were successful.

If we don't set PATH, then the shell will specify one for us.
Busybox adds the sbin dirs, but bash does not. I hit an
issue where bash (among other things) ended up in my initrd
and the boot scripts failed due to a bad default PATH. While
that is a separate issue, we should not be at the mercy of the
shell's default PATH. Update the initrdscripts to all specify:
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin

grub2 needs a different set of install steps from grub 0.97. This
adds them to init-install.sh and adds an install-time check that
determines which version is being used and which steps to use
depending on the version of grub selected.

initramfs-live-install is only compatible with i.86|x86_64 so
shouldn't inherit 'allarch'. This comments it out.
More specifically, commit 52295fa3deef3b0374b99829626d524cefae6001
(Improve handling of 'all' architecture recipes and their interaction
with sstate) sets TARGET_ARCH which due to the COMPATIBLE_HOST setting
in the recipe causes it to be skipped and gives the following error
for any -live build:
NOTE: Resolving any missing task queue dependencies

The existing PACKAGE_ARCH = "all" mechanism of sharing packages is problematic
with sstate since there are a variety of variables which have target specific
values and the sstate package therefore correctly changes signature depending
on the MACHINE setting.
This patch creates a new "allarch" class which sets:
PACKAGE_ARCH = "all"
(as per the existing convention)
INHIBIT_DEFAULT_DEPS = "1"
(since its not target specific and therefore can't depend on the cross
compiler or target libc)
TARGET_ARCH = "all"
TARGET_OS = "linux"
TARGET_CC_ARCH = "none"
(since these variables shouldn't change between the different packages and
target compiler flags shouldn't be getting used)
PACKAGE_EXTRA_ARCHS = ""
(since we shouldn't be depending on any architecture specific package architectures)
Not all PACKAGE_ARCH = "all" recipes can use this class since some run configure
checks on the compiler. This means they have target specific components and therefore
the "all" classification is incorrect.

Having one monolithic packages directory makes it hard to find things
and is generally overwhelming. This commit splits it into several
logical sections roughly based on function, recipes.txt gives more
information about the classifications used.
The opportunity is also used to switch from "packages" to "recipes"
as used in OpenEmbedded as the term "packages" can be confusing to
people and has many different meanings.
Not all recipes have been classified yet, this is just a first pass
at separating things out. Some packages are moved to meta-extras as
they're no longer actively used or maintained.
