This would be a good idea. We can put all RTEMS-related ports into a
separate directory. If there's any driver-specific port, that can also
be added there and waf can be taught to pick up the right one
according to the target.

I agree with this approach, as it allows adding sources with
problematic license (like STM) into its own directory and a warning
can be added to waf while building those targets.
