[Buildroot] [PATCH 00/11] Add support for building Snagboot

[Thomas Petazzoni]

Hello,

Snagboot <https://github.com/bootlin/snagboot/> is an open-source and
platform-agnostic tool to recover and reflash embedded platforms,
replacing vendor-specific tools by a single unified tool.

This patch series aims at allowing to build Snagboot for the host as
part of a Buildroot build, so that a Buildroot user can use Snagboot
after the build to recover/reflash an embedded platform.

Snagboot requires a number of dependencies, which is why we are adding
python-crccheck, python-fs and python-pyfatfs as new packages, and
also enabling host variants for the existing python-tftpy,
python-pyusb, python-xmodem and python-appdirs packages.

Since we're adding so many host Python packages, we thought it would
be a good idea to test them, but our runtime testing infrastructure
wasn't really convenient to test host packages. The first two patches
therefore propose some improvements to the testing infrastructure,
which are then use by the remaining patches to make sure we at least
minimally test that host Python packages work.

Let me know what you think!

Thomas
