Redundant help texts (one which only repeats the description)
are deleted.
Descriptions and help texts are trimmed.
Some config options are moved, even across menus.
No config option _names_ are changed.

Currently when you disable fancy echo, escape sequences are hardcoded
enabled (e.g. as if you used `echo -e` all the time). The opposite
behavior is more desirable (always disable -e support) because:
* This seems to contradict the spirit of the kconfig help text (where
it says enable support for -n/-e flags), although you could say that
we aren't supporting the -e flag directly as `echo -e` will show the
-e flag.
* POSIX makes escape sequences optional, and even says they are there
only on XSI-conformant systems.
* It saves space (~100 bytes on x86_64).
* It makes things faster!
* It makes it behave more like bash where you need an explicit -e flag
in order for escape sequences to be interpreted.

This change retains "or later" state! No licensing _changes_ here,
only form is adjusted (article, space between "GPL" and "v2" and so on).

just build relevant source and use xxx_main functions.
build system: add a special case when we have exactly one applet enabled
(makes "true", "false", "basename" REALLY tiny).
getopt32: do not use stdio.

moved the contents of libbb/bb_echo.c back into coreutils/echo.c,
which is a more reasonable place for them than libbb. this
forces anyone who wants echo and test to be builtin to ash to
also have them available as applets. their cost is very small,
and the number of people who wouldn't want them as applets is
also very small.
added warning about shell builtins vs. CONFIG_FEATURE_SH_STANDALONE_SHELL,
which conflicts with their use.
thanks to nathanael copa for debugging help.
some string size optimization in test.c may have been lost with
this commit, but this is a good new baseline.
This is a bulk spelling fix patch against busybox-1.00-pre10.
If anyone gets a corrupted copy (and cares), let me know and
I will make alternate arrangements.
Erik - please apply.
Authors - please check that I didn't corrupt any meaning.
Package importers - see if any of these changes should be
passed to the upstream authors.
I glossed over lots of sloppy capitalizations, missing apostrophes,
mixed American/British spellings, and German-style compound words.
What is "pretect redefined for test" in cmdedit.c?
Good luck on the 1.00 release!

busybox.h which slowed compiles. I left only what was needed and then fixed up
all the apps to include their own header files. I also fixed naming for pwd.h
and grp.h functions. Tested to compile and run with libc5, glibc, and uClibc.

escape seq. code from tr and echo into utility.c. Fix thanks to
Matt Kraai <kraai@alumni.carnegiemellon.edu>.
* This should close Bug #1015. Please test.
