Rafaël Carré a01422c54b plugins: changes for targets with small plugin buffer (Clipv1)
- only enable overlays for targets with very small plugin buffer (<=
  0x10000 bytes, i.e. archos)
- change the condition for rockboy to reflect exactly why it can be
  built or not
- Some plugins need a large plugin buffer, only enable them if the
  buffer is big enough (sizes measured on Clipv1)
- disable MIDI if we have 2MB (or less), we won't be able to load the
  instruments in the audio buffer
- remove unusable lua overlay loader
- sokoban code is bigger on clipv1 than on SH, assume it code is 20kB on
  anything but SH so it builds with buffer smaller than 192kB
- reduce the Clipv1 plugin buffer size from 288kB to 96kb, disabling
  zxbox, chessbox, and fft

zxbox and chessbox have overlays which run on archos, we just need to
enable them on other targets. We'll also be able to run rockboy.

fft won't run as it needs a large plugin buffer for greylib

Build Your Own Rockbox

1. Check out 'rockbox' from SVN (or extract a downloaded archive).

   $ svn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk rockbox

     or

   $ tar xjf rockbox.tar.bz2

2. Create a build directory, preferably in the same directory as the firmware/
   and apps/ directories. This is where all generated files will be written.

   $ cd rockbox
   $ mkdir build
   $ cd build

3. Make sure you have sh/arm/m68k-elf-gcc and siblings in the PATH. Make sure
   that you have 'perl' in your PATH too. Your gcc cross compiler needs to be
   a particular version depending on what player you are compiling for. These
   can be acquired with the rockboxdev.sh script in the /tools/ folder of the
   source, or will have been included if you've installed one of the
   toolchains or development environments provided at http://www.rockbox.org/

   $ which sh-elf-gcc
   $ which perl

4. In your build directory, run the 'tools/configure' script and enter what
   target you want to build for and if you want a debug version or not (and a
   few more questions). It'll prompt you. The debug version is for making a
   gdb version out of it. It is only useful if you run gdb towards your target
   Archos.

   $ ../tools/configure

5. *ploink*. Now you have got a Makefile generated for you.

6. Run 'make' and soon the necessary pieces from the firmware and the apps
   directories have been compiled, linked and scrambled for you.

   $ make
   $ make zip

7. unzip the rockbox.zip on your music player, reboot it and
   *smile*.

If you want to build for more than one target, just create several build
directories and create a setup for each target:

   $ mkdir build-fmrecorder
   $ cd build-fmrecorder
   $ ../tools/configure

   $ mkdir build-player
   $ cd build-player
   $ ../tools/configure
