If modules contain circular dependencies, the depmod script will follow
the circle forever. So add a simple sanity check to abort rather than
chew up the CPU.

The previous fix up loaded dependencies two deep, but really that was an
incomplete fix as we need to load dependencies all the way down. So change
the code to run recursively through all dependencies.

The helper script needs updating to match latest busybox modprobe behavior
in that all dependencies need to be listed, not just the immediate ones.
Along the way, fix symbol prefixed ports, optimize the output, and add
some more depmod compatible options.

This patch make depmod.pl more robust in cross environment. If native
nm did not recognize target's object, you can override it with NM
environment variable.
binary from modutils. This one, however, can be run on the _host_
system (need not be run on the target) and is fully cross platform, so
even if your target is ARM or powerpc or whatever, this will still
work. When used to support the new modprobe applet, this allows
busybox to fully supplant modutils for architectures supported by
busybox insmod.
