Given that README.scrapyard shows scrapping of netta boards:

netta2           powerpc     mpc8xx         c51c1c9a    2014-07-07
netta            powerpc     mpc8xx         c51c1c9a    2014-07-07

delete netta example from POST tests.

All objects under post/ directory are enabled by CONFIG_HAS_POST.
(post/tests.o is enabled by CONFIG_POST_STD_LIST.
But CONFIG_POST_STD_LIST depends on CONFIG_HAS_POST.)

We can move CONFIG_HAS_POST switch to the top Makefile.

This commit also deletes post/rules.mk,
which in not necessary any more.

This reverts commit 3e16abe0e468c568b30acb7d8583e3dbed6f177b.

The logic of this patch is broken - testing for CONFIG_SYS_POST_FPU in
the Makefile cannot work, as this is only a bit that may (or may not)
be set in the CONFIG_POST variable.

The patch cases build errors on a number of boards, so we revert it.

Before this commit, weak symbols were not overridden by non-weak symbols
found in archive libraries when linking with recent versions of
binutils.  As stated in the System V ABI, "the link editor does not
extract archive members to resolve undefined weak symbols".

This commit changes all Makefiles to use partial linking (ld -r) instead
of creating library archives, which forces all symbols to participate in
linking, allowing non-weak symbols to override weak symbols as intended.
This approach is also used by Linux, from which the gmake function
cmd_link_o_target (defined in config.mk and used in all Makefiles) is
inspired.

The name of each former library archive is preserved except for
extensions which change from ".a" to ".o".  This commit updates
references accordingly where needed, in particular in some linker
scripts.

This commit reveals board configurations that exclude some features but
include source files that depend these disabled features in the build,
resulting in undefined symbols.  Known such cases include:
- disabling CMD_NET but not CMD_NFS;
- enabling CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT but not CONFIG_QE.
