We have tried multiple solutions to solve the "makeinfo" problem in
binutils and gdb, without finding anything really convincing. So it
seems like the easiest solution is to add a texinfo host package, and
use it as a dependency of binutils/gdb when they are fetched from
Git. This commit introduces just the host-texinfo package.

Having checked that binutils doesn't need to depend on host-texinfo...
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/515914/
...and having fixed gdb to not build the documentation...
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/515821/
...we can now safely remove this host package since there aren't any
packages depending on it.

The makeinfo program from texinfo is needed to get Crosstool-NG to
build properly a toolchain. Long term, it would be great if
Crosstool-NG supported building without texinfo, simply by disabling
the build of documentation.
