buildman: make board selector argument a regex
A common use-case is to build all boards for a particular SoC. This can be achieved by: ./tools/buildman/buildman -b mainline_dev tegra20 However, when the SoC is a member of a family of SoCs, and each SoC has a different name, it would be even more useful to build all boards for every SoC in that family. This currently isn't possible since buildman's board selection command-line arguments are compared to board definitions using pure string equality. To enable this, compare using a regex match instead. This matches MAKEALL's handling of command-line arguments. This enables: (all Tegra) ./tools/buildman/buildman -b mainline_dev tegra (all Tegra) ./tools/buildman/buildman -b mainline_dev '^tegra.*$' (all Tegra20, Tegra30 boards, but not Tegra114) ./tools/buildman/buildman -b mainline_dev 'tegra[23]' Signed-off-by: Stephen Warren <swarren@nvidia.com> Acked-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>

+Buildman lets you build all boards, or a subset. Specify the subset by passing
+command-line arguments that list the desired board name, architecture name,
+SOC name, or anything else in the boards.cfg file. Multiple arguments are
+allowed. Each argument will be interpreted as a regular expression, so
+behaviour is a superset of exact or substring matching. Examples are:
+
+* 'tegra20' All boards with a Tegra20 SoC
+* 'tegra' All boards with any Tegra Soc (Tegra20, Tegra30, Tegra114...)
+* '^tegra[23]0$' All boards with either Tegra20 or Tegra30 SoC
+* 'powerpc' All PowerPC boards
Buildman does not store intermediate object files. It optionally copies
the binary output into a directory when a build is successful. Size
