Broadcom Doc 2012

Target: Document and Upstream Broadcom 97425 Target to Qt.

Scope: Upstream all broadcom/directFB changes for Qt5, document this part of building Qt
for the Broadcom P7425 platform.

Move to the latest AppLibs and get the multiprocess OpenGL/DirectFB port working. Document
the necessary steps and patches and get them upstreamed.

Qt 5.0.0

Logbook

Re-apply/validate needed linker changes to the new AppLibs release. Cleaned them up compared to previous releases.

Slowly continue with the above.

Start with the device profile, brad's work on arch autodetect makes it more easy.
Deal with build breakage for endian detection.

Create the device.pri but I fail to include it due qmake not exposing QT_BUILD_TREE and resolving symlinks.. The qt_config.prf strategy does not work either as it is not loaded during config.tests. The other problem is that qmake resolves symlinks, this means that a "include (../../../device.pri)" will never look in the builddir for the device.pri
Proposed a Devices page.

Got device profile to work in shadow build. I needed to add ln s to add the device.pri around and load the .qmake.cache.
* Updated Devices/Broadcom97425, but still blocked on on device profile.

Basic Device profile has been merged, rebased and extended the patches that base on it. This includes sanity checking of the compiler, -directfb configure option.
On the course and daily rebase more build breakage got introduced and resolved on the way.
