gcc 4.7.x is going to be retired soon, and now that gcc 4.9.0 is out,
it's time for Buildroot to switch to gcc 4.8.x as the default gcc
compiler version.

gcc build scripts use wrong variable name to specify xtensa overlay

which leads to obscure failures later in the build process.

The xtensa port uses __xtensa_libgcc_window_spill in libgcc to implement
__builtin_frame_address. This symbol is local/hidden in libgcc. This is not a
problem when linking against static libgcc. But g++ defaults to
-shared-libgcc, thus breaking link against C++ shared libraries that are using
__builtin_frame_address as follows:
ld: test: hidden symbol `__xtensa_libgcc_window_spill' in .../libgcc.a(lib2funcs.o) is referenced by DSO
Add upstream patches that make libgcc_s.so a linker script that links in
unresolved symbols from the static libgcc, similar to the ARM and PowerPC
ports.

Our current stripping strategy requires that shared libraries have the
executable permission. However, this is by far not something
recognized as a standard behavior: Debian/Ubuntu distributions for
example do not have executable permissions on their
libraries. Therefore, pushing to upstream packages fixes that add the
executable permissions is not easy.
As a result, this commit improves the stripping logic so that it not
only strips the files that are executable, but also the ones that
match '*.so*', which should match both the shared libraries and the
dlopen()'able plugins, as long as they have a .so extension.
Thanks to this addition, a number of manual "chmod +x" done by various
packages can be removed.

In order to keep better track of when a feature got deprecated, and hence
when it can be removed, a new set of symbols BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_xxxx_xx is
introduced. These symbols are automatically selected when BR2_DEPRECATED is
selected, and thus are transparent to the user.
A deprecated feature will no longer depend on BR2_DEPRECATED directly, but
rather on the appropriate BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_xxxx_xx. If that symbol does
not yet exist, it has to be created in Config.in.
When removing a deprecated feature, one should also check whether this was
the last feature using the BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_xxxx_xx symbol, in which
case the latter can be removed from Config.in.
A followup patch will make sure the overview is added to the list of
deprecated features in the manual, so that a buildroot core developer can
easily determine which features to remove in a given development cycle.

The mudflap library is only useful if one uses the -fmudflap gcc
option to do more checks on pointers/arrays. This commit adds an
option to enable/disable mudflap support at the gcc level. By default,
it is disabled, which saves a little bit of build time compared to the
default of gcc which consists in enabling mudflap support.
Since mudflap is now disabled by default, and ensured to never be enabled
on platforms where it is not available, some gcc.mk code that was used to
disable mudflap in problematic configurations can be removed.
Whether -fmudflap is used when building is left to the user.

The HOST_GCC_CONFIGURE_SYMLINK creates a symbolic link

gcc. However, it was only using 'ln -s' and not 'ln -sf', which was
causing problems when doing 'make host-gcc-final-reconfigure' for
example, because the configure commands (including this macro) are
being re-executed, but the symbolic link already exists.

Each stage of the gcc build needs to make a small dance before the

to the configure script. The common gcc.mk had a

gcc-intermediate steps, but the gcc-final step wasn't using it.

When NPTL support was introduced, gcc required a three stages build
process. Since gcc 4.7, this is no longer necessary, and it is
possible to get back to a two stages build process. This patch takes
advantage of this, by doing a two stages build process when possible.
We introduce a few hidden kconfig options:
* BR2_GCC_VERSION_NEEDS_THREE_STAGE_BUILD, which is set by the gcc
Config.in logic to indicate that the compiler might need a three
stages build. Currently, all versions prior to 4.7.x are selecting
this kconfig option.
* BR2_TOOLCHAIN_LIBC_NEEDS_THREE_STAGE_BUILD, which indicates whether
the C library might need a three stages build. This is the case for
eglibc, and uClibc when NPTL is enabled.
* BR2_TOOLCHAIN_NEEDS_THREE_STAGE_BUILD finally is enabled when both
of the previous options are enabled. It indicates that a three
stages build is actually needed.
In addition to those options, the uClibc/gcc build logic is changed to
use only a two stages build process when possible.
