Startig with glibc 2.34, the gconv modules description has been split in
two:
- a common definition in the old location, /usr/lib/gconv/gconv-modules
- specific definitions in a subdirectory, /usr/lib/gconv/gconv-modules.d/
This is done so as to simplify the handling of glibc gconv modules, and
eventually to segregate those outside of glibc, and so that third-parties
may also provide their own gconv converters and their definitions.
And starting with that same glibc version, most of the gconv modules
definitions are moved to an extra configuration file in that
sub-directory.
It is thus no longer possible to use special code pages, like cp850,
which are very useful to access FAT-formatted devices.
Add support for this new gconv layout, while keeping support for older
glibc versions. Note that the modules themselves are not moved or
renamed, just the definition files have changed.
Instead of passing the one old gonv modules definitions file on stdin,
we pass the base directory to that file, and move into the script the
responsibility to find all the gconv definition files.

nsswitch.conf is processed both by the toolchain, nss-mdns and
nss-myhostname without any guaranteed ordering in between.
The toolchain package ensures that nsswitch.conf is available, and the two
nss-* packages tweaks the content, so the toolchain processing should run
before the nss-* ones. Toolchain is a dependency of all the packages, so
ensure this is done by moving the toolchain handling to a
post-target-install hook.
Also move the variable to toolchain/toolchain/toolchain.mk where the virtual
toolchain package is defined for clarity.

Rearrange the header of the .mk file so it becomes similar to a header
from a package. It doesn't fit in one line, so split the details to a
comment below the header.
GCONV_LIBS is only used inside this file, so rename it to start with
TOOLCHAIN_, following the namespace convention already used by packages.
Rename the hook COPY_GCONV_LIBS to TOOLCHAIN_GLIBC_COPY_GCONV_LIBS
following the convention used for hooks in packages.

For a multi-arch toolchain, gconv modules are in a sub-directory named
after the machine gcc targets. This is the case, for example, for the
Linaro ARM 2014.09 toolchain, which has the gconv modules in (relative
to the sysroot):
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/gconv
while the Sourcery CodeBench ARM 2014.05 (non-multi-arch) has them in:
/usr/lib/gconv
So, to catter for both cases, search both paths. We want to favour the
machine-specific gconv modules over potentially existing "generic" ones,
so we first search that (if it exists) and fallback to looking in the
generic location.

Don't blindly install the /etc/nsswitch.conf file, it's useless for
toolchains that aren't (e)glibc-based and misleading.
Make the installation conditional on a (e)glibc toolchain.

The gconv libraries are used to translate between different character sets
('charsets', even 'csets' sometimes). Some packages need them to present
text to the user (eg. XBMC Gotham).
In (e)glibc they are implemented by the internal implemenation of iconv,
called gconv, and are provided as dlopen-able libraries.
Note that some gconv modules need extra libraries (shared by more than
one gconv module), so we must, when adding a subset of modules, scan the
installed modules in search of the missing libraries.
[Thomas: add general explanation in expunge-gconv-modules and fix
coding style.]
