[Buildroot] [PATCH 0 of 2 v4] Add find utility functions / exclude files from strip

[Thomas De Schampheleire]

This patch series adds a few utility functions to Makefile.package.in that
help in composing find commands, and uses these functions to exclude
user-configured files and directories from being stripped in target-finalize.

Thanks to input from Arnout, the find functions are now much simpler and
should be clearly understandable by everyone.
