e6633fd2e3 toolchain: add missing stamp file touch in external toolchain
In the support of custom external toolchains, we forgot to touch the
$(STAMP_DIR)/ext-toolchain-checked stamp file, which means that the
toolchain was re-checked and re-installed at everyt build.

At the same time, quietize a bit other stamp files touch.

9eaad202f1 toolchain: rework thread options
The selection of linuxthreads, linuxthreads old or NPTL doesn't make a
lot of sense for external toolchains. So, instead, we :

 * Introduce an hidden BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS option, which must be
   selected by toolchain specific options when thread support is
   available. Package needing to test thread support should use this
   option.

 * Move the none/linuxthreads/linuxthreads old/NPTL selection to
   Buildroot internal toolchain configuration.

 * Add an option in external toolchain to tell if thread support is
   available or not in the external toolchain. We assume that glibc
   without threads is not possible, as Ulrich Drepper said in
   http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2005-08/msg00091.html

ffmpeg, dmalloc and openvpn are fixed to use the new
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS option. For openvpn, --enable-threads=posix
is no longer used, as the configure script doesn't even understand
this option.

6b578c8d73 toolchain: rework C++ options
Instead of having BR2_GCC_CROSS_CXX and BR2_INSTALL_LIBSTDCPP, with
BR2_GCC_CROSS_CXX not being visible (and therefore being useless),
let's just keep BR2_INSTALL_LIBSTDCPP to enable C++ in the toolchain
and install C++ libraries on the target.

We also take that opportunity to make BR2_INSTALL_LIBSTDCPP an hidden
option, which is selected by an option in Buildroot toolchain support
or an option in External toolchain support, just as we did for other
toolchain features.

Some work definitely remains to be done :

 - The name BR2_INSTALL_LIBSTDCPP is ugly, but we keep it for the
   moment in order to avoid changing all packages.

 - We should clarify the other language-related options (Fortran,
   Java, Objective-C, etc.).

01b434b27a toolchain: remove toolchain-specific stripping
We already handle the stripping of libraries in $(TARGET_DIR) at the
global level, so there's no need to have toolchain-specific option and
code for this.

6c492d5e7b toolchain: add support for external toolchain profiles and download
Instead of letting the user define all the details of his external
toolchain, we define a set of profiles for well-known external
toolchains (CodeSourcery ones only at the moment, can easily be
extended with other toolchains).

Once a profile has been choosen, the user is offered the choice of
either letting Buildroot download and install the external toolchain,
or (as before) to tell Buildroot where the toolchain is installed on
the system.

We of course provide a "custom profile", through which the user can
configure Buildroot to use a custom external toolchain for which no
profile is available.

fff711786a toolchain: Improve C library option selection
Turn BR2_LARGEFILE, BR2_INET_IPV6, BR2_INET_RPC, BR2_USE_WCHAR,
BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE and BR2_PROGRAM_INVOCATION into hidden options.

Then, for Buildroot toolchains, external toolchains and Crosstool-NG
toolchains, provide visible options that selects the hidden options.

This allows :

 * To show a different label and help text in the case of Buildroot
   toolchain (do you want to enable feature X ?) and in the case of
   external toolchain (is feature X available in your toolchain ?)

 * To not show any option when a glibc external toolchain is selected
   (since glibc is assumed to support all of largefile, IPv6, RPC,
   WCHAR, locale and program invocation) and have them all selected in
   that case.

There is some amount of duplication between Buildroot toolchain config
options and Crosstool-NG toolchain config options, because kconfig
doesn't allow to source the same Config.in file twice (even if under
mutually exclusive conditions). This duplication is more readable that
the hack that consists in splitting files in multiple pieces.

However, this commit changes the name of the options visible in the
configuration interface, so existing .config files will have to be
updated accordingly.

17b66affdf ccache: rework ccache management
* ccache is now a normal package (both for the host and the target).

 * ccache option is now part of the "Build options" menu. It will
   automatically build ccache for the host before building anything,
   and will use it to cache builds for both host compilations and
   target compilations.

 * bump ccache to 3.1.3
