Piotr Dymacz b3cb0e7588 firmware-utils: mktplinkfw: rework combined image option
We use combined option in "mktplinkfw" tool for generating initramfs
kernel images and header for kernel inside "safeloader" image type (in
fact, only for TL-WR1043ND v4 at this moment).

There is also "mktplinkfw-kernel" tool, a stripped-down version, used
only for generating "simple" header, for safeloader image types.

This changes how "mktplinkfw" handles combined images (which then will
allow us to drop the stripped-down version of the tool):

- drop "ignore size" command line option (it was used only for combined
  images anyway)
- don't require "flash layout id" for combined images (we don't need and
  shouldn't limit size of the initramfs kernel and for kernels inside
  safeloader images, the "tplink-safeloader" tool does the size check)
- require kernel address and entry point in command line parameters for
  combined images (consequence of previous point)
- don't include md5 sum and firmware length values in header (they are
  needed only for update from vendor GUI and are ingored in case of
  initramfs and "tplink-safeloader" images)
- drop "fake" flash layout for TL-WR1043ND v4 as it's no longer needed

Also, adjust "mktplinkfw-combined" command in ar71xx/image/tp-link.mk to
match introduced changes in "mktplinkfw" tool.

This is the buildsystem for the LEDE Linux distribution.

Please use "make menuconfig" to choose your preferred
configuration for the toolchain and firmware.

You need to have installed gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python, perl, make,
find, grep, diff, unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers.

Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to get all the latest package definitions
defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default respectively
and "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks of all of them into
package/feeds/.

Use "make menuconfig" to configure your image.

Simply running "make" will build your firmware.
It will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain, 
the kernel and all choosen applications.

To build your own firmware you need to have access to a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system
(case-sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin will not be supported because of
the lack of case sensitiveness in the file system.
