Joachim WibergandTobias Waldekranz 17ff8677ee board/common: replace default editor, nano -> mg
This reverts an earlier change where nano was made the default editor in
a misguided attemt by yours truly to accomodate beginner users.

With the recent improvements of the CLI and the fact that the NETCONF
support has matured greatly, the need for a user-friendly editor have
diminished drastically.  Editing system files is now limited to devs
and the core team prefers Mg over nano and vi.

Joachim Wiberg 4ca58836b4 board/common: replace edit and editor with symlink to nano
The nano editor has been shown, over and over again, to be more
user-friendly to complete UNIX/Linux beginners than even Mg.

Also, change the default pager/less to be less (again), it was
very confusing to have less be most and more just be more.  We
recommend scripts to use pager and edit/editor to call system
safe defaults.

Joachim Wiberg ab6c156c89 board/common: add compat symlinks to ip command
Various scripts and tools search for the ip command in different
places.  Most distros install it to /bin/ip and symlink to /sbin
and /usr dito, but Buildroot only installs to /sbin/ip
