This patch resolves compilation issues with GCC versions 12 and glibc 2.17.
It corrects the constraints used in the THREAD_SETMEM and
THREAD_SETMEM_NC macros for the movq instruction
in the x86_64 architecture.

glibc-2.28 complains:
configure: error: use a compatible toolchain or configure with --disable-mathvec (this results in incomplete ABI).
Apparently this is a problem in the way GCC passes the -mcpu and -march
values to the assembler. As a workaround have the configure check pass
-mcpu as well to override anything we're passing in the environment.
Patch and explanation taken from the Yocto project with thanks.

GCC13 picks up some new errors on older glibc versions. Disable -Werror

We've been carrying around this patch for ages. It was first added in
commit 42e908c4 ("libc/glibc: workaround for autoconf'ed define of
caddr_t") and ported to glibc-2.13 in commit de6b6733 ("libc/glibc: add
patch to avoid caddr_t redefinition"). It has been ported to every new
version of glibc ever since.
It's not immediately obvious that the original problem still affects
modern glibc versions. If there is a problem it hasn't been reported to
the glibc maintainers in the 12 years since it was first seen. It could
be that ct-ng is unique in the way we support canadian builds or that
there was another fix for the same problem applied upstream sometime in
the last 12 years.
Drop the patch now to stop in being propagated blindly to new glibc
versions. Doing it as a separate commit (as opposed to dropping it in
the previous commit which bumped the version) allows the decision to be
documented and if this turns out to be wrong it can be easily reverted.

Add the new version. Regenerate the patches and remove the one that had
been applied upstream. Add a milestone for 2.36 as this version
introduces support for the loongarch CPU architecture.

glibc 2.12.1 was marked as obsolete. Now that the 1.25.0 release is out
this version can be removed completely. As glibc 2.12.1 was the last
remaining version supported by glibc-ports support for glibc-ports is
also removed.

Newer GCC versions trigger warnings on older GLIBC versions. GLIBC 2.29
is warning free with GCC9. GLIBC 2.31 is warning free with GCC10. GLIBC
2.34 is warning free with GCC11.
Add milestones for 2.31 and 2.34 and use those to set the default value
for GLIBC_ENABLE_WERROR based on the GCC version.

CentOS6 has reached EOL so now glibc-2.12.1 can be marked as obsolete.
This also means the last glibc-ports version (and glibc-ports itself)
obsolete as well. These will be removed after the next release.

This refreshes the line numbers, removes any fuzz (which would make any
future forward ports easier) and standardizes the patch/file headers
(which makes them easier to read).

As of today ARCompact (AKA "ARCv1 ISA") processors (mostly those are ARC770)
are not officially supported by upstream glibc as it adds quite some burden
on release ans support of yet another "architecture" port.
But given on ABI and ISA front ARCompact is very close to ARCv2 we may
easily retrofit its support off-the-tree, which we do here.
Also given amount of changes we need to apply there's a hope it will be easy
and straight-forward to apply the same to later versions of glibc.

Backport change from glibc upstream that defines RELEASE as stable
instead of release. This will at least cause the default_cflags to be
set to expected default values again.
Ref issue #1396, although the bigger issue of respecting crosstool-ng
CT_GLIBC_EXTRA_CFLAGS is most likely still not fixed.

cleanly. For now avoid specifying -Werror for powerpc64+glibc-2.32.

So again due to non-technical reasons (lack of public documentation
of ARC instruction set which we actively work on but no yet published)
we missed upstream 2.30 release.
Still the code is there, we regularly run full test-suite and are confident
in port's quality and robustness.

ARC port of Glibc was submitted to the mailing list recently [1]
but due to late submission it didn't make it in Glibc 2.29 release.
Hopefully by the time of next release it will be a part of upstream
release but for now we have to use off-the-tree patch.
Still it's proven to work internally as well as its test-suite
shows brilliant results as might be seen from [1]:
------------------>8-------------------
Summary of test results:
24 FAIL
5124 PASS
27 UNSUPPORTED
19 XFAIL
------------------>8-------------------
Moreover ARC's Glibc port is known to work in Buildroot, OpenEmbedded
and even Automotive Grade Linux distro so we should be good having
this patch for Glibc.
BTW the patch itself is a copy of the one I use in OE, see [2].

- Force building make as a companion tool if host make is older than
4.0 (CentOS 7 currently has 3.82)
- Disable 2.29 as a choice if host python is older than 3.4
(CentOS 7 has 2.6 unless python from EPEL is installed)
- Python2 emits its version information to STDERR. Ugh.
While there, also use the detected host Python for GDB configuration.
