Treat custom and applet scripts as applets

BusyBox has support for embedded shell scripts.  Two types can be
distinguished:  custom scripts and scripts implementing applets.

Custom scripts should be placed in the 'embed' directory at build
time.  They are given a default applet configuration and appear
as applets to the user but no further configuration is possible.

Applet scripts are integrated with the BusyBox build system and
are intended to be used to ship standard applets that just happen
to be implemented as scripts.  They can be configured at build time
and appear just like native applets.

Such scripts should be placed in the 'applets_sh' directory.  A stub
C program should be written to provide the usual applet configuration
details and placed in a suitable subsystem directory.  It may be
helpful to have a configuration option to enable any dependencies the
script requires:  see the 'nologin' applet for an example.
