This commit adds support for the avr-libc C library.
According to the project page at http://www.nongnu.org/avr-libc , the
avr-libc package provides a subset of the standard C library for Atmel
AVR 8-bit RISC microcontrollers. In addition, the library provides the
basic startup code needed by most applications.
Support for this library in crosstool-ng is only enabled for the AVR
8-bit target.
The avr-libc manual and most distributions build the AVR 8-bit gcc
toolchain with the "avr" (non-canonical) target.
Some experimentation also led to the conclusion that other (canonical)
targets are not very well supported, so we force the "avr" target for
crosstool-ng as well.
The manual also recommends building avr-libc after the final gcc build.
To accomplish this with crosstool-ng, a new do_libc_post_cc step is
added, in which currently only avr-libc performs its build, and is a
no-op for the other libc options.

Prirotize http downloads before ftp downloads.
By having http download first, those using proxy will work with the
current download mechnism.
This tells me that that mechnism needs to be updated.
(proxy support and/or kconfig toggles)

newlib: fix extract process for custom version
If the user specifies the use of a custom newlib version, the logic in the
extract function was reversed, so this step would fail.

This patch fixes the download of the avr32 headers in crosstool-ng by
fetching them directly from Atmel's web site instead of the now-broken URL
given by the original author of the avr32-header-fetching modification,
who fetched them from a copy on his own, now-defunct server.
It also adds the necessary logic to extract from a zip file, as that is
how the headers are packaged.
To configure it for avr32 after launching ct-ng menuconfig in an empty
directory:
Paths and misc options ->
Shell to use as CONFIG_SHELL = sh
Target options ->
Target Architecture = avr32
Toolchain options ->
Tuple's alias = avr32
Binary utilities ->
binutils version = 2.18a
C compiler
gcc version = 4.2.2
C-library
newlib version = 1.17.0
Enable IOs on long long = yes
Enable IOs on floats and doubles = yes
Disable the syscalls supplied with newlib = yes
CONFIG_SHELL is necessary to get round the "fragment: command not
found" bug when binutils-2.18 is configured using bash.
Prepared against crosstool-ng mercurial trunk on 31 March 2012.

The menu system provides an option to allow a user to request newlib
version 2.0.0. newlib-2.0.0, however, is not available at the download
location currently being used. It is, however, available (as are other
supported versions of newlib) at an alternate location.

Currently, newlib is built in the start_file step, which is wrong, but was
needed when the baremetal integration was... well, 'unfinished'.
Now that we build the baremetal compiler from the final cc step, and a
proper core gcc in pass-1 and pass-2, we can move the newlib build to the
step do_libc, where it belongs.

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.

I ran into some minor difficulties looking through the build log for a
particular file: I wasn't interested in seeing it unpacked, but only
when it is built or installed. Adding these two levels allows me to
differentiate between those cases.
[Yann E. MORIN: Those are blind log levels, and are used only to search
in the build-log afterward.]

A few facts:
- building the C library requires a proper core compiler
- core compiler is issued from one of the core passes
- the C library is required to build libstdc++
- newlib is only built for baremetal
- in bare metal, the final compiler is issued from one of the core passes
So we need to build the C library between core pass 1 and core pass 2.
The only place is eithe libc_headers() or libc_start_files(). The most
pertinent seems to be libc_start_files().
So we build newlib from libc_start_files(), and leave libc() empty.
The newlib "team" rolls new releases about once a year (december).
This is quite a long time between releases, in case code was fixed.
So, allow user to use a CVS snapshot to benefit early from fixes
and enhancements to newlib.
newlib handles the build/host/target a bit differently as one would expect:
build : not used
host : the nachine that builds newlib
target : the machine on which newlib will run
