Adding Central config.cache options
The following changes allow for use of a central configure cache
file. This speeds up configuration of packages.
Its use is configurable at the top level (BR2_CONFIG_CACHE - default n).
Old style makefiles can use it if they use the following MACRO in makefiles:
$(AUTO_CONFIGURE_TARGET) see my change to directfb.mk.
New style Autotools.in will use it if you set the global option.
However you can enable the global option and on a per package overrule it by doing
the following: $(PKGNAME)_USE_CONFIG_CACHE = NO see fontconfig.mk for an example
of this.
Finally I have removed a few config variable settings which indicated no CXX compiler
as this is wrong and breaks the build when using this central cache.

I would appreciate feedback on this change (I have been testing for 2-3 weeks)
But I can never test all cases! If you enable the BR2_CONFIG_CACHE option some
Makefile.autotools.in based packages may now break - I cannot build them all.
In this case you may need to remove config options that are being hardcoded all
over the place (like gtk saying we have 2 CXX compiler) or disable the use
of CONFIG CACHE file like I have done in fontconfig.
I can build all packages required to get WebKit on DirectFB up and running
and it runs fine.
I will try to resolve any issues this creates as fast as I can.
