This gets rid of a long list of boards with network interfaces and
instead let's boards (or MCUs with peripheral network interfaces)
provide the netif feature.
The apps that before used the long list are not depending on the
feature instead (in case of the default example, this is an
optional dependency).

cpu/$(CPU)/Makefile.features and cpu/$(CPU)/Makefile.dep are
automatically included
Part of moving CPU/CPU_MODEL definition to Makefile.features to have it
available before Makefile.include.
Currently only tested boards provide the feature riotboot.
Potentially all boards embeding a cortex-m0+/3/4/7 are
able to have riotboot as a feature, but other dependencies
need to be met, e.g. usage of cortexm.ld linker script,
double initialisation of cpu_init(), etc. See doc in
bootloaders/riotboot.
The file always exist so no need to do '-include'.
Replaced using:
sed -i 's|-\(include $(RIOTCPU)/.*/Makefile.features\)|\1|' \
$(git grep -l '$(RIOTCPU)/.*/Makefile.features' boards)
This change allows drivers (or any module for that matter) to provide
features. This is e.g. useful if a board does not have a transceiver,
but your application uses `USEMODULE += some_driver`, which implements
the transceiver interface.
The line `FEATURES_PROVIDED += some_feature` should go to the guarded
block in `{sys,drivers}/Makefile.include`.
