Allows building the #mold linker, which can then be used in the
cross-toolchain by passing the -fuse-ld=mold to the gcc flags. It is
much faster than ld or gold.
This requires a C++20 compiler and cmake.
Initially implemented by Arnaud, and HC added configure check for cmake.
Outstanding task to validate compiler is C++20 compatible.

Linux kernel versions newer than 5.3 require rsync in order to export
the UAPI headers. Commit f441a6bf ("linux: Add dependency on rsync for
Linux >= 5.3") attempted to address this with a check that runs when
crosstool-ng is built. That had the downside that if crosstool-ng was
built and packaged on a machine that had rsync then run on a machine
that didn't then the build would fail due to the missing rsync.
Conversely if the first machine didn't have rsync installed when
crosstool-ng was built then we would not offer newer kernel versions.
We can address this by checking for rsync when the toolchain
configuration is updated using some functionality in the newer Kconfig
that we've updated to previously.

Upstream changes in the way kconfig handles environment variables means
we need to update our usage of them.

This was previously available in 6c62da4803 but was then removed
in cb7fcbe1ef. Add it back since it will be helpful if the user
wants to hide the crosstool-NG version in the pkgversion.
To get the new version, a defconfig from "ct-ng savedefconfig" or
"ct-ng oldconfig" must be used in combination with "ct-ng menuconfig"
or "ct-ng nconfig".

Also:
- Move companion_* to comp_* to match the kconfig symbols
- Replace bootstrap with former gen-versions.sh
- Fold *.in.2 into their respective first parts; this moves common
options to the end - if it is undesirable, inclusion of *.in
can be moved where *.in.2 used to be (but that will also move
version selection after common options).
- Retire addToolVersion.sh (may later replace with a more
comprehensive script that tries to download the added tarballs,
copy the patches and try to apply them, and create a version.desc).

... it is possible to just not set it in the configuration, why force
it? It just increases the complexity in Kconfig.

Some of the compiler options depend on the C library choice, (e.g.
whether core passes are needed).
Since the compiler menu comes before the C library menu, those options
may or may not be visible until the C library is chosen, leading to
either options being visible by the user (thus be puzzling as they would
not apply to his case), or invisible to him (yet again puzzling him).
Invert the order of the compiler and the C library in the menuconfig. It
anyway looks more rational, in the end.

Having the crosstool-NG version in the .config helps in case we
want to reproduce the toolchain with the exact same version of
crosstool-NG.
This also reverts #bb73e7632b54.

If check_for is able to find the required prog/inc/lib, allow it to
set an arbitrary variable to 'y'. This variable is then pushed down
to the kconfig definition.
For example:
has_or_abort prog=foobar kconfig=has_foobar
If foobar is available, it yields a kconfig variable defaulting to y:
config CONFIGURE_has_foobar
bool
default y
If foobar is missing, it yields a kconfig variable defaulting to n:
config CONFIGURE_has_foobar
bool
Thus it is possible to depends on that variabel to show/hide options:
config SOME_FEATURE
bool
prompt "Some feature"
depends on CONFIGURE_has_foobar

This patch adds support for installing the gcc test suite. A helper
Makefile is provided for building and running the gcc tests.
The default configuration runs all gcc tests and requires automatic
ssh/scp login access to a networked target board. See README for
more details.
Note: Current feature is tested with the powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu
sample but it should work with others as well.

sstrip is now alone in its 'tools' menu, and we will probably never gain
any other 'tool'. Besides, sstrip is just strip, but a little bit more
agressive, so it deserves going to the 'binary utilities' menu.

ltrace, in the debug sub-menu, selects libelf, in the tools sub-menu.
Inverse the order of the two sub-menus, so that the user does not have
to go back and forth between the two sub-menus.
Move the companion libraries sub-menu down the main menu.
That way, the user does not need to go back and forth in the menu
to change options set by the different components that select the
companion libraries (binutils, gcc, gdb).
- add a framework to easily add new ones
- add gdb as a first debug facility
- add patches for gdb
After the kernel checked its installed headers, clean up the mess of .checked.* files.
Reorder scripts/crosstool.sh:
- dump the configuration early
- renice early
- get info about build system early, when setting up the environment
- when in cross or native, the host tools are those of the build system, and only in this case
- elapsed time calculations moved to scripts/functions
Remove handling of the color: it's gone once and for all.
Update tools/addToolVersion.sh:
- handle debug facilities
- commonalise some code
- remove dead tools (cygwin, tcc)
Point to my address for bug reports.
You might just say: 'Yeah! crosstool-NG's got its own repo!".
Unfortunately, that's because the previous repo got damaged beyond repair and I had no backup.
That means I'm putting backups in place in the afternoon.
That also means we've lost history... :-(
