Since OpenWrt's main libc library, musl, does not provide separate shared

linking -lrt or -lpthread on target.
To clean this situation up somewhat and to simplify binary package
dependecies for all of the potential musl, glibc and uclibc cases, drop
those packages and move libpthread.so as well as librt.so into the main
libc package for those libc implementations that happen ship them as
extra shared libraries.

I think this is a good idea. How about adding PROVIDES:=librt libpthread
to the libc package in order to avoid breaking non-core packages that
still depend on those?
