Selecting BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_MANDATORY from BR2_aarch64 and
BR2_aarch64_be doesn't make much sense, because the actual ARM cores
described in arch/Config.in.arm then all select
BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_OPTIONAL. So we end up with both
BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_OPTIONAL and BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_MANDATORY, which
doesn't make any sense.
To prevent this, we remove the selection of BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_MANDATORY
from BR2_aarch64 and BR2_aarch64_be, and let arch/Config.in.arm do its
job. What arch/Config.in.arm does is currently incorrect, but it will
be fixed in a separate commit.

BR2_sh selects BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_OPTIONAL, which means that it's up to
the user to decide whether he wants to use MMU or not on SuperH
platforms.
However:
- On SH2A, there is no MMU at all, so being to select "Use MMU"
doesn't make any sense.
- On SH4, there is no support for *not* using the MMU, so disabling
"Use MMU" will cause the build to fail.
In order to fix this, we move the MMU selection to arch/Config.in.sh:
- BR2_sh2a selects nothing, so that it's always noMMU
- BR2_sh4* select BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_MANDATORY so that the MMU is
always used.

The variable 'KERNEL_ARCH' is actually a normalized version of
'ARCH'/'BR2_ARCH'. For example, 'arcle' and 'arceb' both become 'arc', just
as all powerpc variants become 'powerpc'.
It is presumably called 'KERNEL_ARCH' because the Linux kernel is typically
the first place where support for a new architecture is added, and thus is
the entity that defines the normalized name.
However, the term 'KERNEL_ARCH' can also be interpreted as 'the architecture
used by the kernel', which need not be exactly the same as 'the normalized
name for a certain arch'. In particular, for cases where a 64-bit
architecture is running a 64-bit kernel but 32-bit userspace. Examples
include:
* aarch64 architecture, with aarch64 kernel and 32-bit (ARM) userspace
* x86_64 architecture, with x86_64 kernel and 32-bit (i386) userspace
In such cases, the 'architecture used by the kernel' needs to refer to the
64-bit name (aarch64, x86_64), whereas all userspace applications need to
refer the, potentially normalized, 32-bit name.
This means that there need to be two different variables:
KERNEL_ARCH: the architecture used by the kernel
NORMALIZED_ARCH: the normalized name for the current userspace architecture
At this moment, both will actually have the same content. But a subsequent
patch will add basic support for situations described above, in which
KERNEL_ARCH may become overwritten to the 64-bit architecture, while
NORMALIZED_ARCH needs to remain the same (32-bit) case.
This commit replaces use of KERNEL_ARCH where actually the userspace arch is
needed. Places that use KERNEL_ARCH in combination with building of kernel
modules are not touched.
There may be cases where a package builds both a kernel module as userspace,
in which case it may need to know about both KERNEL_ARCH and
NORMALIZED_ARCH, for the case where they differ. But this is to be fixed on
a per-need basis.

To simplify things, we make the whole C-SKY architecture require gcc-9

the C-SKY port.
Note that this does not change the default gcc version to be used for
C-SKY: the C-SKY port is still always the default one; the gcc-9 version
is only proposed as an alternative (except for ck610, of course).

Some CPU variants require that a recent-enough gcc be selected. For
example, ARM's cortex-a35 requires gcc-5, while cortex-a73 requires
gcc-7. Same goes for other architectures, of course.
Currently, we hard-code every such conditions in the gcc version choice,
as well as in the individual external toolchains.
However, as we add even more CPU variants, the conditions are getting
more and more complex to write and maintain.
Introduce new symbols, that architectures can select if they have a
specific requirement on the gcc version. gcc and external toolchains
can then properly depend on those symbols.
The burden of maintaining the requirements on the gcc version now falls
down to the architeture, instead of being split up in gcc and all the
external toolchains.
As the oldest gcc version to handle, we can either choose gcc-4.9, as
the oldest version we support in our internal toolchain, or choose
gcc-4.8, as the oldest external toolchain we support (except for the
custom ones, but they'll be handled specifically in upcoming changes).
We choose to go back up to gcc-4.8.

The 64 bits ARM processors are capable of running 32 bits ARM code, and
some platforms are indeed using this capability. Due to this, if we were
to keep the separation between Config.in.aarch64 and Config.in.arm, we
would have to duplicate the definition of all 64-bits capable ARM cores
into both files.
Instead of going down this route, let's take the same route as the x86
one: a single Config.in.x86 file, used for both x86 32 bits and x86 64
bits, with the appropriate logic to only show the relevant cores
depending on which architecture is selected.
In order to do this, we:
- Make the "ARM instruction set" choice only visible on ARM 32 bits,
since we currently don't support ARM vs. Thumb on AArch64.
- Add the relevant values for the BR2_ARCH option.
- Add the relevant values for the BR2_ENDIAN option.
- Make the "aapcs-linux" BR2_GCC_TARGET_ABI value only used on ARM 32
bits, since this ABI doesn't mean anything on AArch64.
- Make the BR2_GCC_TARGET_FPU option depends on ARM 32 bits, since
there is no -mfpu option on AArch64.
