9b6f89c37f ath79: add support for Netgear WNDR4300 
This patch adds ath79 support for Netgear WNDR4300.
Router was previously supported by ar71xx target only.
Note: device requires 'ar934x-nand' driver in kernel.

Specification
=============
  * Description: Netgear WNDR4300
  * Loader: U-boot
  * SOC: Atheros AR9344 (560 MHz)
  * RAM: 128 MiB
  * Flash: 128 MiB (NAND)
	- U-boot binary: 256 KiB
	- U-boot environment: 256 KiB
	- ART: 256 KiB
	- POT: 512 KiB
	- Language: 2 MiB
	- Config: 512 KiB
	- Traffic Meter: 3 MiB
	- Firmware: 25 MiB
	- ART Backup: 256 KiB
	- Reserved: 96 MiB
  * Ethernet: 5 x 10/100/1000 (4 x LAN, 1 x WAN) (AR8327)
  * Wireless:
	- 2.4 GHz b/g/n (internal)
	- 5 GHz a/n (AR9580)
  * USB: yes, 1 x USB 2.0
  * Buttons:
	- Reset
	- WiFi (rfkill)
	- WPS
  * LEDs:
	- Power (amber/green)
	- WAN (amber/green)
	- WLAN 2G (green)
	- WLAN 5G (blue)
	- 4 x LAN (amber/green)
	- USB (green)
	- WPS (amber/green)
  * UART: 4-pin connector JP1, 3.3V (Vcc, TX, RX, GND), 115200 8N1
  * Power supply: DC 12V 2.5A
  * MAC addresses: LAN=WLAN2G on case label, WAN +1, WLAN5G +2

Installation
============
  * TFTP recovery
  * TFTP via U-boot prompt
  * sysupgrade
  * Web interface

Note about partitioning: firmware partition offset (0x6c0000) is
hardcoded into vendor's u-boot, so this partition cannot be moved
and resized to include Netgear-specific flash areas (pot, language,
config, traffic_meter) not used by OpenWrt.

Test build configuration
========================
CONFIG_TARGET_ath79=y
CONFIG_TARGET_ath79_nand=y
CONFIG_TARGET_ath79_nand_DEVICE_netgear_wndr4300=y
CONFIG_ALL_KMODS=y
CONFIG_DEVEL=y
CONFIG_CCACHE=y
CONFIG_COLLECT_KERNEL_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_IMAGEOPT=y

0130022bae ath79: split base-files into subtargets 
While most of the target's contents are split into subtargets, the
base-files are maintained for the target as a whole.

However, OpenWrt already implements a mechanism that will use (and
even prefer) files in the subtargets' directories. This can be
exploited to make several scripts subtarget-specific and thus save
some space (especially helpful for the tiny devices).

The only script remaining in parent base-files is
/etc/hotplug.d/ieee80211/00-wifi-migration, everything else is
moved/split.

Note that this will increase overall code lines, but reduce code
per subtarget.

base-files ipk size reduction:
master (generic)   49135 B
split (generic)    48533 B (- 0.6 kiB)
split (tiny)       43337 B (- 5.7 kiB)
split (nand)       44423 B (- 4.6 kiB)

Tested on TL-WR1043ND v4 (generic) and TL-WR841N v12 (tiny).
