8fe6efa874 Deprecate the support for the toolchain on target
As discussed during the ELCE 2012 Buildroot Developers Meeting, we no
longer want to support the possibility of building a toolchain for the
target. None of the core developers have any use for this, it has been
known to be broken or cause problems for a long time without anyone
providing fixes for it.

In addition to this, Buildroot is inherently a cross-compilation tool,
so the usage of a native toolchain on the target is not really
useful. Many newcomers are tempted to use this possibility even though
it is clearly not the intended usage of Buildroot.

f8fe67e12e toolchain: add gcc 4.6.0
Add gcc 4.6.0 to the toolchain repertoire:

This version is considered experimental so things may break.

6ca4e7ce97 toolchain/gcc: fix target-gcc selects
We need to select BR2_PACKAGE_BINUTILS as well, now
BINUTILS_TARGET depends on it.

009407e6be binutils: make it a proper package
* Convert binutils to a proper autotargets package

* Add version 2.21 and drop version 2.17

* Hook up packaged binutils for target gcc

* Build tools are on HOST_DIR now so change it

* Move cross/host gcc to HOST_DIR

* Drop kludge from commit 3c77bab2ee
  This is fixed in the next commit "gcc: install copies of libgcc,
  libstdc++ and libgcj to the sysroot" - tested for arm & x86_64
  targets.

* TARGET_CROSS now pointed to HOST_DIR too
