Thank you Ilario and SAn!
The solution proposed by SAn (to put the wanted files
in the files/
directory in the main build directory) is much more convenient:

Why can't I find that "files" directory. Shouldn't it be into the
openwrt directory?
I have already compiled the generic firmware, I don't know if that makes
any difference...
