[Buildroot] [pull request v3] Introduce NVidia's binary driver

Hello All!

This series adds support for NVidia's binary blob, the driver to its
family of GPUs.

It also introduces the OpenGL Registry, to provide GL headers for
those OpenGL/EGL/GLES implementations that do not provide their own
headers (like NVidia's binary blob.)

As a dependency to OpenGL Registry, it also introduces python-lxml, a
binding to libxml2 and libxslt, used to generate the FL headers.

The series was build-tested using XBMC as a test-bed (I managed a
single runtime test, as my HTPC is a bit reluctant at booting from a
USB key when the internal HDD is present, so I can't easily retest.)


Changes v2 -> v3:  (Thpmas P.)
  - opengl-registry is a prompt-less package
  - explain the tricky variables and code about installing the
    NVidia libraries
  - drop support for ARM, not testable here
  - some cleanups
  - bump opengl-registry

Changes v1 -> v2:
  - bump opengl-registry
  - drop i915, applied  (Peter)


Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
