Busybox hosts
This patch enables installation of Buysbox containers on Busybox hosts.
Please see patch message for detailed information.
The patch has been submitted and accepted upstream by LXC maintainers.
The functionality hasn't made it to LXC 0.9.0, but will (most probably)
be included upstream in future releases of LXC.

The patch configures the LXC recipe to include configuration examples
or containers in the default package - lxc, not in the documentation
one - lxc-doc.
By default, bitbake will split a specific package into multiple sections,
based on meaning - binaries, libraries, documentation, configs, etc. The
sections will then be assembled into individual packages, such as e.g lxc,
lxc-doc, lxc-dbg and so on. The packages are mutually exclusive with
respect to the sections they contain.
LXC installation provides several example configuration files for various
usage scenarios. The twist is that LXC build scripts place these config
examples in a relative path that is identified by bitbake as belonging to
documentation. This patch places these configuration files in the main
package, where they normally belong.

The provided patch makes a modification to the LXC busybox template (the
template that creates a minimal container with Busybox).
This type of container will start the udhcpc service - the DHCP client - on
init. For an embedded Linux image, we might assume that the majority of
containers will have manual / static networking configuration on start.
Considering this, starting the udhcpc service by default is useless, since
the service will then has to be killed. The containers that use DHCP for
networking can start udhcpc after container boot, or alter the busybox
template locally to do so by default.
The patch deactivates the default start of the DHCP client on a Busybox
container init.
