makeinfo is known to cause problems when building old texi files with more
recent host makeinfo.
In particular binutils-2.18 won't build on Fedora 20 without this change.
Even though more up to date binutils does build without this change there's
no guaranty it will with bump of host makeinfo in the future.

ARC-specific Makefile has been ignoring DESTDIR when doing target "install".
This has been causing build failure for native binutils, since it was trying
to install into the host's "/usr". This commit adds a patch that teaches
Makefile to honor DESTDIR. This patch should be removed after ARC Binutils
will be bumped to next release.
This fixes:

The autobuilders are not able to build glibc on AArch64 since we moved
to the internal toolchain backend as the default for AArch64. The
reason is that the cross-ld segfaults while linking of the glibc
utilities. Unfortunately, the issue has so far been impossible to
reproduce outside of the autobuilder CI loop itself: even on the same
machine, in the same chroot, the issue does not appear.
Today, Will Newton helped me analyze a bit further the problem. In the
logs of the build machine, we have found that the following segfault
notification matched the dates of the autobuilder failures:

See
http://autobuild.buildroot.org/?reason=glibc-2.18-svnr23787&arch=aarch64
for the autobuilder results.
So, the segfault always happens while accessing an address 2 bytes
after the beginning of a page: it looks like a buffer overflow, which
gets triggered because the object is placed towards the end of the
previous page, and crosses over the next, unallocated page.
Moreover, we looked at the 0x4caf80 address in an AArch64 cross-ld
built by Buildroot, and it turns out that it is part of the
iterative_hash() function. This nicely correlates with the patch that
Will Newton had pointed in
http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2014-May/095881.html as a
fix for invalid memory accesses reported by Valgrind in the AArch64
cross-ld, specifically around the same area of 'ld'.
Therefore, even though we have not been able to reproduce the issue
outside of the autobuilders, and cannot confirm that the patch is
fixing the issue, I propose to integrate this binutils patch into
Buildroot. It is anyway an upstream binutils patch, which fixes a real
problem.

Some packages (actually, just oprofile) need to link against libiberty.
This option just installs libiberty.a so it has no effect on the target,
therefore it's not needed to add a config option for it.
Before binutils-2.24, there was a bug in libiberty/Makefile.in that
caused libiberty to be installed regardless of the
--enable-install-libiberty option. This problem wasn't noticed before
because binutils-2.24 is not selected on any of the autobuilders: the
version can only be selected if an internal toolchain is used, and it
defaults to 2.21.

In the Config.in file of package foo, it often happens that there are other
symbols besides BR2_PACKAGE_FOO. Typically, these symbols only make sense
when foo itself is enabled. There are two ways to express this: with
depends on BR2_PACKAGE_FOO
in each extra symbol, or with
if BR2_PACKAGE_FOO
...
endif
around the entire set of extra symbols.
The if/endif approach avoids the repetition of 'depends on' statements on
multiple symbols, so this is clearly preferred. But even when there is only
one extra symbol, if/endif is a more logical choice:
- it is future-proof for when extra symbols are added
- it allows to have just one strategy instead of two (less confusion)
This patch modifies the Config.in files accordingly.

When the binutils source code is pulled from a Git repository, a
number of generated files are not present, and need to be
re-generated. Those files are generated by flex, bison, and texinfo,
so we need to pull the corresponding dependencies.
Notice that we tried avoiding the texinfo dependency by doing a number
of MAKEINFO tricks, but none of them worked properly, so we've instead
chosen to depend on host-texinfo.

pkg-autotools.mk already handles static/shared linking, so no need to
explictly force it. Worse even, the build fails with BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LINK
as we end up calling libtool with --static when it tries to link the .so,
breaking the build:

Xtensa is a configurable processor architecture, which allows to define
additional instructions and registers. The required variant specific
information for the toolchain is delivered in an 'overlay' file, which
needs to be 'untarred' to the corresponding directories after the
source is installed and patched.
This patch provides support for binutils, gcc, and gdb with a very
limited changes to the build scripts. These additions are only executed
for the Xtensa architecture and have no effect on other architectures.
