build: ipkg-build use fakeroot with PKG_FILE_MODES
The `ipkg-build` script converts a folder into a `opkg` installable package. Until now it would use root:root for all packages and try to preserve file modes. This has the two drawbacks of packages want to add non-root files or add SUID files, like the `sudo` package does. To give more flexibility regarding file modes and avoid init script hacks, a new variable called `PKG_FILE_MODES`. The variable contains a list of files modes in the format `path:owner:group:mode`. An example for the `sudo` package below: ``` PKG_FILE_MODES:=\ /usr/bin/sudo:root:root:4755 \ /etc/sudoers:root:root:0440 ``` The `ipkg-build` now runs within a fakeroot environment to set any mode and directly store it in the resulting `ipk` package archive. Both options `-o` and `-g` are no longer required due to the introduction of the more flexible `-m` options, which takes the `PKG_FILE_MODES` as input. Lastly the option `-c` is removed as it's unused within the script. Signed-off-by: Paul Spooren <mail@aparcar.org>
