In the latest Linaro toolchain, the gdbserver has moved (surprise!)
and is now located side-by-side with the toolchain executables.
This commit adds this path as a new location where to search for a
gdbserver, and while at it wraps the line that has become too long in
the process.

Commit 23ffa7ec first extracts to the toolchain-external build
directory and then moves everything to $(HOST_DIR)/opt/ext-toolchain.
However, this is not idempotent, because moving directories over
existing ones doesn't always work, particularly if the target is on
another device.
Simply remove the destination contents before moving.

Now that packages can provide a list of files to be excluded when
extracting their archive, downloaded external toolchains are no longer
special in this respect.
Still, those toolchains are currently extracted directly into their
final location, $(HOST_DIR)/opt/ext-toolchain/ which means we still
need a custom extract command.
Except, we don't really need it: we can just move the toolchain, after
it's been extracted by the generic extract command, with a post-extract
hook.
This means that:
- we now extract the toolchain with the generic extract command,
- the toolchain is thus extracted into $(@D) ,
- fixup commands are run against $(@D), as a post-extract hook,
instead of against $(HOST_DIR)/opt/ext-toolchain ,
- once this is done, we move $(@D)/* into the final location with a
new post-extract hook.
Note: the blackfin case is special, and will be handled in a follow-up
patch.
[Thomas: register the TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_FIXUP_CMDS only for the Arago
case, add some additional comments in the code about why we're moving
the toolchain around.]

The buildroot internal toolchain now adds a wrapper. When we use a
buildroot toolchain as an external toolchain, we want to bypass this
wrapper and call the compiler directly, for two reasons:
1. The options added by the wrapper are not necessarily appropriate
when it is reused as an external toolchain. For instance, ccache
may have been enabled while building the toolchain but not when
using it as an external toolchain.
2. Currently, the wrapper expects to reside in .../usr/bin, but when
used as an external toolchain it will be in .../ext-toolchain/bin.
Therefore, the wrapper can't find the real binary and sysroot
anymore.
To bypass the wrapper, we check for the existence of *.br_real files in
the external toolchain directory. If any such file exists, the wrapper
will add the .br_real suffix for all the wrapped files. Note that the
wrapper doesn't check if the *.br_real exists for each individual
wrapped file, it just assumes that all wrapped files have a
corresponding .br_real. This is currently true but that may change in
the future of course.

The toolchain wrapper will be reused for the internal toolchain, so it
belongs in the toolchain directory. Also, the ext- prefix is removed
from it. The build commands are moved to a new toolchain-wrapper.mk.
The wrapper arguments that are also relevant for the internal toolchain
wrapper are moved to toolchain-wrapper.mk, the rest stays in
toolchain-external.mk.
While we're at it, move the building of the toolchain wrapper to the
build step of toolchain-external. There is no specific reason to do
this, other than that it fits better semantically. Also remove the
MESSAGE call, otherwise we'd see:
>>> toolchain-external undefined Building
>>> toolchain-external undefined Building toolchain wrapper
/usr/bin/gcc ...
Having an extra "Building toolchain wrapper' message is pointless.
The useless condition on $(BR2_TARGET_OPTIMIZATION) is removed. It was
always true because it wasn't qstrip'ped first, so clearly it works
without that condition as well.

But Buildroot internally generates such a variable when using a custom

because TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_SITE is set to
$(dir $(call qstrip,$(BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_URL))), and $(dir)

Before commit 5715d2dcf4, the external
toolchain wrapper would not pass its own march/mcpu/mtune flags to the real

The mentioned commit intended to remove the passing of an mtune parameter
coming from Buildroot, which was always empty after some other refactoring,
but the changes have the side-effect that march/mcpu is now also passed when
mtune is already given on the command-line. In that case, only mtune should
be passed to the real compiler.

Therefore, when a uClibc-ng toolchain is used as an external

uClibc-ng systems work properly.

When specifying -march=octeon3 in BR2_TARGET_OPTIMIZATION, the toolchain

Blackfin, where it's set to
$(TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INSTALL_DIR)/$(TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_PREFIX)/bin
instead of $(TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INSTALL_DIR)/bin for other

However, this is actually only true for Analog Devices pre-built

Add a new option BR2_GCC_ENABLE_LTO that builds gcc and binutils with
LTO support.
Individual packages still have to enable LTO explicitly by passing '-flto' to
GCC, which passes it on to the linker. This option does not add that flag
globally. Some packages detect if the compiler supports LTO and enable the flag
if it does.
To support LTO, ar and ranlib must be called with an argument which triggers the
usage of the LTO plugin. Since GCC doesn't call these tools itself, it instead
provides wrappers for ar and ranlib that pass the LTO arguments. This way
existing Makefiles don't need to be changed for LTO support. However, these
wrappers are called <tuple>-gcc-ar which matches the pattern to link to the
buildroot wrapper in the external toolchain logic. So the external toolchain
logic is updated to provide the correct symlink.
[Thomas:
- Add a separate BR2_BINUTILS_ENABLE_LTO option to enable LTO
support in binutils. This is a blind option, selected by
BR2_GCC_ENABLE_LTO. It just avoids having binutils.mk poke
directly into gcc Config.in options.
- Remove the check on the AVR32 special gcc version, which we don't
support anymore.
- Adapt the help text of the LTO Config.in option to no longer
mention "Since version 4.5", since we only support gcc >= 4.5 in
Buildroot anyway.
