Debian package `libyaml-dev` is required on build host to successfully build package `kernel/linux`.

Otherwise we will get following errors:

mltree.o -L/build/staging_dir/target-aarch64_cortex-a53_musl/usr/lib -lyaml

Many common GNU/Linux distributions like Ubuntu and Debian does not have
python package anymore, so it can not be installed, thus the command
fails and OpenWrt 19.07 requires to install Python2 [1]

Fixes:

Package python is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
  python2-minimal:i386 python2:i386 python2-minimal python2 dh-python 2to3
  python-is-python3

E: Package 'python' has no installation candidate

As pointed out by Michal Vasilek <michal.vasilek@nic.cz>, this works
only on Ubuntu 20.04 and newer the same applies for Debian 10.

This dependency is required for the Knot Resolver's dnstap module.

Some of the syntax used in the README.adoc file wasn't correct asciidoc.

At the same time the set of possible usages wasn't complete without
documentation about lists generation.

This should help newcomers with orientation in repository.

This also adds short readme files all over repository to document
content of various directories.

This dependency is required while compiling moonjit (it's luajit's
fork). Moonjit is used, for example, by Knot Resolver.
Otherwise, compilation fails with the following output:

/usr/include/gnu/stubs.h:7:11: fatal error: gnu/stubs-32.h: No such file or directory
    7 | # include <gnu/stubs-32.h>
      |           ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

This is required for OpenWrt master (which is going to become OpenWrt
20.xx/21.xx) once it is released. Otherwise, you will get this error:
Build dependency: Please install Python >= 3.5

Python2 needs to be there for OpenWrt 19.07.

While building node packages on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, node fails because of:

In file included from /usr/include/c++/9/deque:60,
                 from /usr/include/c++/9/queue:60,
                 from ../deps/v8/src/libplatform/default-foreground-task-runner.h:8,

compilation terminated.

This can be solved by installing g++-multilib

In compile_pkgs it was renamed to turris1x to make it more clear.

The reason is that compared to default settings of sort version sort is
going to sort correctly numbers. As an exalple:
1.1, 1.2, 1.12
should be sorted as stated here byt sorf possibly sortes it as:
1.1, 1.12, 1.2

The names were changed:
* v4.0 -> hbk
* v4.1 -> hbl
* v5.0 -> hbd

Change .asciidoc to more standard and shorter .adoc.

This potentially breaks some links to workflow in master from outside
but in general is has to happen to be consistent with other projects and
future changes in them.

The original text was little bit cryptic and wasn't true in the end
because master is now considered v6.0 and this of course changes as we
go trough new versions. This should now explain reader how to get
specific version in more general terms.

gcc-multilib is required on host for compiling luajit.
If it is not installed, luajit fails with this error:

fatal error: bits/libc-header-start.h: No such file or directory

We use Luajit for Knot Resolver, Suricata.

Add TIP and remove the section with make menuconfig as it is no longer
necessary

It may contain some errors, needs to be tested, wrote it down from memory
without testing.

Commiting basic building script. Some functionality is already there, what is
missing is handling branches and freezing stuff, correct version setup (no need
in development for now), userlist generation and medkit creation (no need till
we build at least a big part of packages).
