rtl8188eu: new package

[Thomas:
  - remove patches 0001 and 0002, they are not needed since when using
    the kernel-module infrastructure, we directly call the kernel
    build system and bypass the one provided by the external module
  - install the firmware directly in the Buildroot .mk file, which
    allows to also remove patch 0003.
  - remove RTL8188EU_DEPENDENCIES = linux, since this is already
    handled by the kernel-module infrastructure.]

+         A standalone driver for the RTL8188EU USB Wi-Fi adapter.
+         This is needed only for Linux kernels before 3.12.
+         Since 3.12, there is a (staging) driver in mainline, with a similar
+         codebase.
+
+         Make sure your target kernel has the CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT config
+         option enabled.
+
+         Note: this package needs a firmware loading mechanism to load the
+         binary blob for the chip to work.
