Thomas Petazzoni df4d908ed5 toolchain-external: bump musl toolchain to 1.1.12
While the prebuilt musl toolchains provided by http://musl.codu.org/
had not been updated in a while, a new release based on musl 1.1.12
has been put online in December 2015. This commit updates our external
toolchain package to use this new pre-built toolchain.

Compared to the previous 1.1.6 toolchain, there are some changes:

 - The MIPS big endian soft-float variant is no longer available.
 - The Microblaze variant is no longer available.
 - SuperH 4, both little and big endian, variants have been added.
 - The components have been updated: gcc 5.3 is used, binutils 2.25.1,
   and of course musl 1.1.12.

Besides the update itself, in this commit, we are:

 - Making the musl toolchain non-selectable on MIPS big endian
   soft-float.

 - Making the musl toolchain actually work on MIPS little endian
   soft-float, by downloading the right tarball and setting up the
   right symbolic link.

 - Removing support for the Microblaze variant, and adding support for
   the SH4 variants.

All variants except armeb have been boot tested under Qemu, up to a
Busybox shell prompt. armeb has not been tested due to the lack of a
Qemu configuration for this architecture.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
