[Buildroot] [PATCH v4 2015.08 1/4] pkg-generic: add step_pkg_size global instrumentation hook

This patch adds a global instrumentation hook that collects the list
of files installed in $(TARGET_DIR) by each package, and stores this
list into a file called $(BUILD_DIR)/packages-file-list.txt. It can
later be used to determine the size contribution of each package to
the target root filesystem.
Note that in order to detect if a file installed by one package is
later overriden by another package, we calculate the md5 of installed
files and compare them at each installation of a new package.
This commit also adds a Config.in option to enable the collection of
this data, as calculating the md5 of all installed files at the
beginning and end of the installation of each package can be
considered a time-consuming process which maybe some users will not be
willing to suffer from.
