This option is equivalent to basedir, with the small difference being
that's where the meta-data files are generated. In other words, this
allows us to have read-only input modules and modules.dep, while still
being able to generate the meta-data files.

[ Move files to a different dir so input files (produced by kernel build
system is separate from the files generated by depmod (output) ]

Simple test to check if depmod honors override keyword. Uses
mod-simple.ko for foo/ and override/ directories, search.conf to
search in foo and built-in and simple override configuration:
override mod-simple 4.4.4 override
The resulting modules.dep should point to the override directory.

The following tests added:
- depmod_search_order_external_first -- checks if external module
is taken in use when it has higher priority;
- depmod_search_order_external_last -- checks if external module
is skipped when it has lower priority;
- test_modinfo_external -- checks if modinfo is able to look up
correct external module;
- modprobe_external -- checks if modprobe is able to look up
correct external module and loads it.

The patch adds nested loops configuration for the loop test:
mod-loop-h -> mod-loop-i -> mod-loop-j -> mod-loop-k
^ | |
--------------------------- |
| |
-------------------------------------------
making 2 loops with common edges:
mod-loop-h -> mod-loop-i -> mod-loop-j -> mod-loop-h
mod-loop-h -> mod-loop-i -> mod-loop-j -> mod-loop-k -> mod-loop-h
The actual output for the loops is:
depmod: ERROR: Cycle detected: mod_loop_h -> mod_loop_h
depmod: ERROR: Cycle detected: mod_loop_i -> mod_loop_j -> mod_loop_k -> mod_loop_h -> mod_loop_i
(the order in the second doesn't matter, but the first one is
incorrect)

Only print actual cyclic dependencies. Print count of all the modules
in cyclic dependency at the end of the function so that dependent
modules which are not in cyclic chain can be ignored.
Printing dependent modules which are not in cyclic chain causes buffer
overflow as m->modnamesz is not included in buffer size calculations
(loop == m is never true). This buffer overflow causes kmod to crash.
Update depmod test to reflect the change as well.

Instead of shipping pre-compiled module, this prepares the build system
to be able to compile the necessary modules from module-playground. This
preparations starts by replacing md5.ko with our own dummy
mod-simple.ko, built from source. It works by copying the modules to
their final location while preparing the rootfs.
This partially reverts ad7f175 ("Add test for depmod using search dirs
with same prefix"). Testing it twice in the inverted order doesn't
ensure we get the bug with wrong ordering.
As put by Anssi Hannula <anssi@mageia.org>:
So the bug is triggered only if the shorter name is higher-prio _and_
shorter name is traversed first. If the long name is traversed first,
the bug don't trigger with either "search" directive order (and on my
"make check" runs this is the case).
Test depmod with search dirs "foo" and "foobar". Previously to 49b33c1
("depmod: do not allow partial matches with "search" directive") we were
failing this test due to matching the prefix without checking if
it's the full dir name.
We are adding 2 tests here in order to catch the case we only pass the
test due to processing the directories in a favourable order.
