Sebastian Weyer f89f52168f support/testing/infra/basetest.py: use Bootlin toolchain stable 2022.08-1
This patch updates the default toolchain used for runtime tests. The
last time this toolchain was updated was in commit
0207a65323 3 years ago. Since then,
multiple things have changed:

Firstly, it used uclibc-ng as the libc whereas since commit
4057e36ca9, glibc is used as the default
library.

And secondly, since commit 531b2a10cd, buildroot
dropped the support for gcc 8 and it cannot be built internally anymore.
So the testsuite was executed using a toolchain that can't be built by
the Buildroot internal toolchain backend anymore.

This new Bootlin toolchain stable 2022.08-1 is based on gcc 11.3.0,
linux headers 4.9.327, glibc 2.35 and binutils 2.38.

The previous toolchain bleeding edge 2018.11-1 is based on gcc 8.2.0,
linux headers 4.14.80, uclibc 1.0.30 and binutils 2.31.1

Nowadays Bootlin toolchains are packaged in Buildroot and we can
directly select them from BASIC_TOOLCHAIN_CONFIG and avoid
setting the toolchain parameters (BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_CUSTOM...).

The switch to Glibc requires to update some tests for the following
reasons:

- TestPython3Py, TestPython3Pyc and TestPython3PyPyc has been updated
  since they use the libc binary file name in their test
  (uClibc: libc.so.1 vs Glibc: libc.so.6).

- TestTmux needs at least one locale to pass (as stated in tmux help
  text "tmux needs a working UTF-8 locale"), so use "C.UTF-8".

- TestOpenSsh needs a toolchain >= 5.x due to a openssh issue
  (Similar to: https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=13671)
  Use the Bootlin toolchain bleeding-edge 2022.08-1 rhat provide
  kernel headers 5.4

- TestShadow needs a toolchain >= 4.14
  Use the Bootlin toolchain bleeding-edge 2022.08-1 rhat provide
  kernel headers 5.4

Runtime tested on the gcc farm server.

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 OFTC IRC.
