Convert BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_PATH to an absolute path when used.
Otherwise the symbolic links to the external toolchain binaries are
not installed in host/bin when BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_PATH is relative.
This happens because TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INSTALL_WRAPPER
changes directory into host/bin to create the symbolic links.
From there the tools are no longer found via the relative path and
a single symbolic link host/bin/$(prefix)-* is created instead.
Although relative paths sounds like something less than ideal to put in
a Buildroot configuration, it's actually rather typical to put the
buildroot sources as a submodule (or subdirectory) of custom sources
(either in a BR2_EXTERNAL or not), in which case the relative path is
well-defined.
