With the new "select PLATFORM_LINUX" mechanism

option alone no longer has any purpose of changing program behavior or
affecting compiled code. So there is no longer need to prompt user of

8d75d794ea libbb: use sendfile() to copy data between file descriptors
Busybox already uses sendfile in httpd. This patch proposes to use it
globally to copy data between file descriptors.

It speeds up the copying on slow systems a lot - below are the times needed
to copy a 450Mb file with and without this option enabled on a BeagleBone
Black:

sendfile:
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m8.170s

265a74b983 Kbuild: move CONFIG_PAM to general configuration

This patch moves said option to general configuration, thus allowing to

12677acf0a CONFIG_PID_FILE_PATH: new configuration option for pidfile paths
We set a default path for the directory where pidfiles are create
when FEATURE_PIDFILE is selected.  The default has no effect on
applets which must specify a pidfile path on the command line to
run, and it can be overridden by applets which optionally allow
the user to specify the pidfile path.

We also add pidfile write/remove support for klogd, ntpd and watchdog.
For syslogd, we add a missing remove_pidfile() for better cleanup
on daemon exit.
