Allow the user to configure extra flags to pass to the host compiler
at build time. Applies to both C and C++.
Useful on Ubuntu to turn off the stack protector and fortify defaults
so the program stands a better chance of running on other distros.

binutils 2.21 doesn't recognise the Cortex-M3 SVC instruction when
assembling with -mcpu=all. This was fixed by the 2.21.53 snapshot and
is needed to build RTOSs such as FreeRTOS.

When CT_PARALLEL_JOBS is -1, set the number of parallel jobs to the
number of online CPUs + 1. Update documentation to match.
I find this useful when building in the cloud. You can use the same
.config file and have the build adapt to the number of processors
available. Limited testing shows that NCPUS+1 is faster than NCPUS+0
or NCPUS+2.

Allows to choose if one wants to keep or not the syscalls that are provided with
newlib. It passes the --disable-newlib-supplied-syscalls or
--enable-newlib-supplied-syscalls to the configure script. If one chooses to
disable the builtin syscalls, he/she will have to write his/her own. This can
be usefull to port newlib to a new platform/board.

Virtually all our targets do support stack unwinding. For some of
them, ./configure can't detect that, and the build fails later on.
So, default to force unwind, and let the user disable it if it
breaks in his/her case.

Simplify the way the custom tarball is handled:
- fake version="custom"
- at download, simply link the custom tarball to:
"linux-custom.${custom_extension}"
- at extract, the above allows to simply extract "linux-${LINUX_VERSION}"
where LINUX_VERISON is set to the fake version="custom"
Not that much convoluted, in fact... :-/

No-one ever inquired about this feature. Due to the way it works, it is
rather unlikely that every user used a properly-formatted tarball, or a
properly structured directory as imput.
Beside, it is not really easy to maintain: I just spent one full day
remembering how it worked... Sigh... :-(
Just deprecate this, until next release, or until someone complains.

Currently, the mirror can be used either:
- as a fallback in case upstream is unavailable (default behavior)
- as the preferred source for downloads
But the most common use-case seems to provide a truely-LAN mirror
to speed up downloads in big corpos', and/or provide a 'trusted'
source for the tarballs.
So, make the following changes;
- if a mirror is specified, always try that before trying upstream

svn is needed to download eglibc from the upstream repository.
In some situations, though, it can happen that:
- the developpers' machines do not have svn
- a LAN mirror has been set-up with pre-downloaded eglibc tarballs
In this case, it makes sense not to hard-depend on svn.
So, if svn is missing, just say so, and add a comment in the
menuconfig.
