The behaviour introduced by commit 31c765081d ("watchdog: stop
watchdog first on startup") causes warnings in the kernel log when the
nowayout feature is enabled:
[ 16.212184] watchdog: watchdog0: nowayout prevents watchdog being stopped!
[ 16.212196] watchdog: watchdog0: watchdog did not stop!
The latter may also appear by itself in case the watchdog is of the
type that cannot be stopped once started (e.g. the common
always-running gpio_wdt kind).
These warnings can be somewhat ominous and distracting, so allow
configuring whether to use this open-write-close-open sequence rather
than just open. Also saves a bit of .text when disabled:

shutdown_on_signal 31 58 +27

Make it default n:
- It's a workaround for one specific type of watchdog (and
that seems to be a defect in the kernel driver)
- Even when not enabled in busybox config, it can easily be
implemented outside busybox
- Code size
- Commit 31c765081d should be considered a regression for all the
boards that now end up with KERN_CRIT warnings in dmesg.
- The author of that commit said "This use case is evidently rare, so
if it is indeed causing problems for other people I'd OK then I
understand whatever needs to be done." in the v1 thread.

PLATFORM_LINUX is a hidden configuration option which is disabled by
default and enabled at over a hundred locations for features that are
deemed to be Linux specific.
The only effect of PLATFORM_LINUX is to control compilation of
libbb/match_fstype.c. This file is only needed by mount and umount.
Remove all references to PLATFORM_LINUX and compile match_fstype.c
if mount or umount is enabled.

Some editors (like vim) use renaming strategy to save file. That means
they save a file to some random name and then rename it to final
location. The advantage is that such save is atomic.
However, crontab -e holds open fd to the temporary file, meaning it
never sees the changes. The temporary file needs to be re-opened after
the editor terminates for the changes to properly save.

mim runs scripts from a specification file which can be thought
of as an extremely limited Makefile. Neither make variables nor
dependencies are supported. By default the file 'Mimfile' is read.
An example:
hello:
echo hello $1
clean:
rm -rf *
The command 'mim' or 'mim hello' will echo 'hello'. Unlike 'make'
arguments after the first are available to the script; they don't
specify additional targets.
mim isn't enabled by default. Enabling it increases the size of the
binary by about 500 bytes.

This matches the behaviour of both GNU dc (as specified in
its man page), and BSD dc (where stack_popstring() pops
only if the head is a string.)
Add a couple of tests to verify this behavior.

Back in 2007, commit 0c97c9d437 ("'simple' error message functions by
Loic Grenie") introduced bb_simple_perror_msg() to allow for a lower
overhead call to bb_perror_msg() when only a string was being printed
with no parameters. This saves space for some CPU architectures because
it avoids the overhead of a call to a variadic function. However there
has never been a simple version of bb_error_msg(), and since 2007 many
new calls to bb_perror_msg() have been added that only take a single
parameter and so could have been using bb_simple_perror_message().
This changeset introduces 'simple' versions of bb_info_msg(),
bb_error_msg(), bb_error_msg_and_die(), bb_herror_msg() and
bb_herror_msg_and_die(), and replaces all calls that only take a
single parameter, or use something like ("%s", arg), with calls to the
corresponding 'simple' version.
Since it is likely that single parameter calls to the variadic functions
may be accidentally reintroduced in the future a new debugging config
option WARN_SIMPLE_MSG has been introduced. This uses some macro magic
which will cause any such calls to generate a warning, but this is
turned off by default to avoid use of the unpleasant macros in normal
circumstances.
This is a large changeset due to the number of calls that have been
replaced. The only files that contain changes other than simple
substitution of function calls are libbb.h, libbb/herror_msg.c,
libbb/verror_msg.c and libbb/xfuncs_printf.c. In miscutils/devfsd.c,
networking/udhcp/common.h and util-linux/mdev.c additonal macros have
been added for logging so that single parameter and multiple parameter
logging variants exist.
The amount of space saved varies considerably by architecture, and was
found to be as follows (for 'defconfig' using GCC 7.4):
Arm: -92 bytes
MIPS: -52 bytes
PPC: -1836 bytes
x86_64: -938 bytes
Note that for the MIPS architecture only an exception had to be made
disabling the 'simple' calls for 'udhcp' (in networking/udhcp/common.h)
because it made these files larger on MIPS.

Between Busybox 1.24.2 and 1.25.0 the bb_info_msg() function was
eliminated and calls to it changed to be bb_error_msg(). The downside of
this is that daemons now log all messages to syslog at the LOG_ERR level
which makes it hard to filter errors from informational messages.
This change optionally re-introduces bb_info_msg(), controlled by a new
option FEATURE_SYSLOG_INFO, restores all the calls to bb_info_msg() that
were removed (only in applets that set logmode to LOGMODE_SYSLOG or
LOGMODE_BOTH), and also changes informational messages in ifplugd and
ntpd.
The code size change of this is as follows (using 'defconfig' on x86_64
with gcc 7.3.0-27ubuntu1~18.04)
function old new delta
bb_info_msg - 182 +182
bb_vinfo_msg - 27 +27

crondlog 45 - -45
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(add/remove: 2/1 grow/shrink: 3/0 up/down: 215/-45) Total: 170 bytes
If you don't care about everything being logged at LOG_ERR level
then when FEATURE_SYSLOG_INFO is disabled Busybox actually gets smaller:
function old new delta
static.log7 194 200 +6
log8 190 193 +3
log5 190 193 +3
syslog_level 1 - -1
