Currently the CodeSourcery toolchains for MIPS can be selected to build

This commit wires up the gcc version dependency mechanism in the

* Changes the definition of all pre-defined external toolchain
profiles to select the appropriate BR2_TOOLCHAIN_GCC_AT_LEAST_*
option.
* For custom external toolchains, provides a visible Config.in
"choice" to select the gcc version used in the external toolchain.
* Adds a new check_gcc_version function, that verifies that the real
gcc version found in the external toolchain matches the one
declared in the Buildroot configuration.

Since a while, the semantic of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB has been changed
from "prefer static libraries when possible" to "use only static
libraries". The former semantic didn't make much sense, since the user
had absolutely no control/idea of which package would use static
libraries, and which packages would not. Therefore, for quite some
time, we have been starting to enforce that BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB
should really build everything with static libraries.
As a consequence, this patch renames BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to
BR2_STATIC_LIBS, and adjust the Config.in option accordingly.
This also helps preparing the addition of other options to select
shared, shared+static or just static.
Note that we have verified that this commit can be reproduced by
simply doing a global rename of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to
BR2_STATIC_LIBS plus adding BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to Config.in.legacy.

The 2014R1 toolchain is provided in two flavours by Analog Devices:
one based on gcc 4.3.x, which is considered stable, and one based on
gcc 4.5.x, considered experimental. In commit
5a65b8e185 ("toolchain-external: add ADI
Blackfin 2014R1 toolchain, remove 2012R1") both variants were added.
However, after some testing in the autobuilders, and discussion with
the Analog Devices folks, it turns out that the experimental version
of the toolchain is too experimental. It causes numerous build
failures, and the Analog Devices folks clearly say that it's an early
release and that they expect quite a few problems to show up.
Therefore, this commit removes the experimental flavor and keeps only
the stable variant. Note that the removal/renaming of the Config.in
options is not a problem, since those options were added after the
2014.05 release.

As our architecture support expands to a number of architectures that

to know whether the toolchain has NPTL support or not.
This commit adds a new BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS_NPTL hidden Config.in
option that allows packages to know whether NPTL is available or not.
This hidden option is:
* Automatically enabled when glibc/eglibc or musl toolchains are

* Automatically enabled when an internal uClibc toolchain with NPTL
support is configured. It is left disabled otherwise for internal
uClibc toolchains.

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.

This commit adds the support for the recently release Sourcery ARM
2013.11 toolchain (gcc 4.8, gdb 7.6, glibc 2.18), and consequently
removes the support for the Sourcery ARM 2011.09 toolchain.

(e)glibc doesn't support a fully statically linked userspace. Even a
basic program such as Busybox fails to do authentication due to glibc
loading some libraries dynamically. Therefore, we disable the
possibility of using a (e)glibc toolchain when
BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB=y.

Maxime Ripard reported that the Linaro toolchains were not visible
when selecting a Cortex-A, but forgetting to set the EABI to
EABIhf. While this is expected, Buildroot should normally should a
comment in this case. However, the comment is only visible when the
selected ARM architecture is not ARMv7 *and* the EABI is not
EABIhf. Instead, make the comment visible when either the selected
architecture is not ARMv7 *or* when the selected EABI is not EABIhf.
While we're at it, reword the comment text so that it actually fits
within the limits of the menuconfig screen.

Previously, an external-toolchain on a mipsel/mips64el target
didn't select the appriopriate endianness but
it asked the user to set the correct CFLAGS on his/her own.
We fix this by appending "-EL" to the toolchain wrapper options
if the user has selected a mipsel/mips64el target.
[Thomas: remove unneeded test on BR2_ENDIAN, since mipsel and mips64el
are always little-endian, and add the corresponding big endian case.]

Some Config.in(.host) files have constructs like:
config FOO_VERSION
string
default "1.0" if FOO_1_0
default "2.0" if FOO_2_0
default $FOO_CUSTOM_VERSION if FOO_CUSTOM
The dollar sign here is not needed and confusing, so can be removed.

This commit adds support for external toolchains based on the musl C
library, as available from http://www.musl-libc.org.
Note that the pre-built musl toolchains available from
http://musl.codu.org/ are not working for the moment, since they lack
sysroot support. However, this problem has been reported to the
maintainer, who has already added sysroot support in his scripts at
https://bitbucket.org/GregorR/musl-cross, and therefore the next
version of the pre-built toolchains should work with Buildroot
out-of-the-box. In the mean time, the musl-cross script must be used
to build the toolchain.

This commit refactors how Stack Smashing Protection support is handled
in Buildroot:
*) It turns the BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_USE_SSP option into an option
that only enables the SSP support in uClibc, when using the internal
toolchain backend.
*) It adds an hidden BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_SSP option that gets enabled
when the toolchain has SSP support. Here we have the usual dance:
glibc/eglibc in internal/external backend always select this
option, in the case of uClibc/internal, it gets selected when
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_USE_SSP is enabled, in the case of
uClibc/external, there is a new configuration option that the user
must select (or not) depending on whether the toolchain has SSP
support.
*) It adds a new options BR2_ENABLE_SSP in the "Build options" menu,
to enable the usage of SSP support, by adding
-fstack-protector-all to the CFLAGS.

The introduction of the EABIhf ABI requires a few updates to the
configuration options for external toolchains, in order to ensure that
the user doesn't do any invalid selection. In detail:
* The Linaro ARM toolchains now depend on BR2_ARM_EABIHF, because
that's the ABI they use, and it is incompatible with EABI. The
comment about the availability of Linaro toolchains is updated to
inform users selecting EABI that they should select EABIhf if they
want to see Linaro toolchains.
* The Sourcery CodeBench toolchains now depend on BR2_ARM_EABI,
because that's the ABI they use. A comment is added to inform users
that have selected EABIhf that Sourcery CodeBench are only
available when EABI is used.
* The Arago toolchains now depend on BR2_ARM_EABI, because that's the
ABI they use. The description of the ARMv7 Arago toolchain is also
slightly improved.

Currently, when we need to do a conditional on the type of C library
used, we need to take into account the three toolchain backends. As we
are going to add eglibc support to the Buildroot toolchain backend, it
would become even uglier, so this patch introduces two new hidden
options: BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_UCLIBC and BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC, that
exist regardless of the toolchain backend. The entire Buildroot code
base is converted to use those options.
Note that we have intentionally created only one option
(BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC) for both glibc and eglibc, since they are
essentially the same, as far as Buildroot is concerned.
