[PATCH] user: Add migration hints from old build system

Why the __ around RTEMS_ADA and no other option?

I think the first order of business is to explain how to translate existing
configure and build steps to the new one. I think adding a simple example
with a couple of enable/disable and the corresponding waf would help. Every
user has to face this.

Then explaining multiple bsps but I don't know how common that is in actual
use.

Let's focus on getting folks across the transition hurdle first.
