A lot of our recipes had short one-line DESCRIPTION values and no
SUMMARY value set. In this case it's much better to just set SUMMARY
since DESCRIPTION is defaulted from SUMMARY anyway and then the SUMMARY
is at least useful. I also took the opportunity to fix up a lot of the
new SUMMARY values, making them concisely explain the function of the
recipe / package where possible.

[YOCTO #4286]
The package runtime mapping rename issue is already fixed by
commit 0bc564af07c1bae8112f834a60aea3b72af7de13, the "kernel-module-" workaround
is not necessary anymore for out-of-tree module package, so revert that commit.
This reverts commit 71aafc214fe407b7620e747c11dfb8326c867b1c.

The special key kernel-module- is necessary for the system to avoid a package
rename when installing a multilib image. For example:
local.conf: IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " hello-mod"
bitbake lib32-core-image-minimal
The system will translate names and prepend 'lib32-', unless the package
begins with kernel-module-.

It is necessary to supply file://defconfig to the SRC_URI when using
a defconfig (it is not implicitly understood as the commentary might
currently suggest).

There has been some confusion over proper use of the linux-yocto-custom
recipe. It is not intended to build as is from meta-skeleton. It should
be modified via a bbappend file to provide a Linux kernel config at the
very least.
Update the commentary to make this requirement more explicit. Add some
additional detail about how to create a bbappend file and how and when
to modify the various variables.
Clear COMPATIBLE_MACHINE so bitbake will not attempt to build the recipe
unless the user explicitly adds there machine to the variable, which
should encourage them to read the recipe comments before attempting to
build it.

Remove the linux-tools include as perf is now packaged independently.
Without this, including meta-skeleton in bblayers.conf results in a
build failure as linux-tools.inc cannot be found.

Adding a skeleton/refrence recipe for using a subset of the yocto
kernel tools against kernel git repositories.
Sample/reference configuration fragments, features and a patch are
provided and documented in the recipe.
From the recipe itself:
Provides an example/minimal kernel recipe that uses the linux-yocto
and oe-core kernel classes to apply a subset of yocto kernel
management to git managed kernel repositories.
Notes:
kconfig(s): the kernel must be configured with a defconfig, or via
configuration fragment(s). Either of these can be added
via bbappend.
patches: patches can be merged into to the source git tree itself, added
using standard bbappend syntax or controlled via .scc feature
descriptions (also via bbappends)
example configuration addition:
SRC_URI += "file://smp.cfg"
example patch addition (for kernel v3.4 only):
SRC_URI += "file://0001-linux-version-tweak.patch
example feature addition (for kernel v3.4 only):
SRC_URI += "file://feature.scc"
Warning:
Building the sample kernel tree (kernel.org) without providing any
configuration will result in build or boot errors. This is not a bug
it is a required element for creating a valid kernel.

Fixes [YOCTO #1501]
hello-mod is an example kernel module, and does not provide any real
functionality. As such, it would be better placed under meta-skeleton than
meta.
