This commit adds a user-visible option
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_HAS_SSP_STRONG, which will allow the user to
indicate if the custom external toolchain does or does not have
SSP_STRONG support. Depending on this, the user will be able to use
(or not) the BR2_SSP_STRONG option.
Checking if what the user said is true or not about this is already
done in toolchain/toolchain-external/pkg-toolchain-external.mk:
$$(Q)$$(call check_toolchain_ssp,$$(TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_CC),$(BR2_SSP_OPTION))
If the user selects BR2_SSP_STRONG, this will check if
-fstack-protector-strong is really supported.

When Buildroot is released, it knows up to a certain kernel header
version, and no later. However, it is possible that an external
toolchain will be used, that uses headers newer than the latest version
Buildroot knows about.
This may also happen when testing a development, an rc-class, or a newly
released kernel, either in an external toolchain, or with an internal
toolchain with custom headers (same-as-kernel, custom version, custom
git, custom tarball).
In the current state, Buildroot would refuse to use such toolchains,
because the test is for strict equality.
We'd like to make that situation possible, but we also want the user not
to be lenient at the same time, and select the right headers version
when it is known.
So, we add a new Kconfig blind option that the latest kernel headers
version selects. This options is then used to decide whether we do a
strict or loose check of the kernel headers.

The oldest toolchain we test in the autobuilders is the Sourcery ARM
toolchain which is GCC 4.8 and kernel headers 3.13. Therefore, it is
likely that we're missing the required _AT_LEAST dependencies to exclude
packages that don't build with older GCC/headers.
Add a comment to the custom external toolchain that warns when an
untested GCC or kernel headers version is selected.

This patch extends the "copy extra GCC libraries to target" feature to
also work for internal toolchains. The variable has been renamed to be
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTRA_LIBS and the configuration option moved under the
generic toolchain package. For external toolchains, the step that does
the copy is still in the copy_toolchain_lib_root() helper which copies
from the sysroot to the target. For the internal toolchain, the host
gcc-final package does a post install hook to copy the libraries from
the toolchain build folders to both the sysroot and target(!static).
Examples where this can be useful is for adding debug libraries to the
target like the GCC libsanitizer (libasan/liblsan/...).

The custom external toolchain logic asks the user to specify which gcc
version is provided by the toolchain. The list of gcc versions given
by Buildroot is restricted depending on the selected CPU architecture
using the BR2_ARCH_NEEDS_GCC_AT_LEAST_xyz config options.
However, these config options generally indicate in which upstream gcc
version the support for the selected architecture was introduced. But
in practice, it is possible that an external toolchain uses some
non-upstream gcc code, providing support for a CPU architecture before
it was merged in upstream gcc.
A specific example is that there are pre-built external toolchains for
the C-SKY CPU architecture that are based on gcc 6.x, even if the
support for it was only added in upstream gcc 9.x.
Due to the BR2_ARCH_NEEDS_GCC_AT_LEAST_xyz options, only gcc >= 9.x
can be selected for C-SKY, preventing the use of such a custom
toolchain.
In addition, those dependencies are in fact not really needed:
Buildroot will check that the gcc version provided matches what the
user declared in the configuration. And if the gcc provided by the
toolchain does support that CPU architecture, then well, so be it,
there's no need to restrict the gcc version selected.
So we simply get rid of these dependencies on
BR2_ARCH_NEEDS_GCC_AT_LEAST_xyz, and also don't use them anymore to
chose a default value for the gcc version.

There are cases where a downloaded toolchain doesn't have its binaries
placed directly in a "bin" subfolder (where BuildRoot currently looks
for them).
A common example is the official Raspberry Pi Toolchain
(https://github.com/raspberrypi/tools), which has its binaries in
"arm-bcm2708/arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin".
This commit introduces BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_REL_BIN_PATH that defaults
to "bin" and can be changed as needed.

When an architecture expresses a requirement on the gcc version, limit
the version choice in the custom external toolchain.
The rationale being that there is no point in offering that version to
the user if we know before-hand that the gcc version will not work for
that architecture.
All versions below the minimum we support is just made conditional to
that minimum as well, including the "older" entry.
However, this means that the "older" entry is no longer available when
the architecture requires a minimum gcc version. A user who wants to use
a toolchain with a gcc older than the minimum will have no choice but to
realise the toolchain is not suitable (or lie and we would catch that
when checking the gcc version anyway).

Add a new patch to allow to build gcc 7.1 without extracting gcc/testsuite
directory.
This new gcc version require a kernel patch [1] to avoid a build issue with
____ilog2_NaN symbol. The following kernel version contain contain already
this patch :
4.11, 4.10.6, 4.9.18, 4.4.57, 3.18.50 and 3.12.73.
To build a toolchain based on gcc 7 and uClibc-ng 1.0.24, the patch [2] is
required to avoid a build issue due to missing aligned_alloc() definition.

We currently support gcc as old as 4.3. However, Buildroot works
perfectly well with even older gcc versions (tested with 4.1). So we
can add an option BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_GCC_OLD to support that. The
help text of this option is written with plenty of discouragement.
We use _OLD and not something like _PRE_4_3, because at some point we
will likely remove the 4.3 option and what would then require a name
change.
We don't set any _AT_LEAST option in this case because it's no use -
there is no lower bound on the version in this case. We therefore leave
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_GCC_AT_LEAST empty (the implicit default). When it is
empty, we don't do a version check at all in check_gcc_version
(previously we errored out when it was empty).
