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].

Older GCCs (e.g. GCC 4.4 in CentOS 6) chokes on having two identical
typedefs like this:
typedef void *p;
typedef void *p;
The event-loop.h header does not have a guard against double-inclusion.
Not the best solution, but it works and eventually 7.12 will fall into
obsolescence anyway.

- 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.

When merging new package framework, I missed that master had 7.8.2
imported in place of 7.8.1. Noone complained about this downgrade...

... in uClibc and glibc.
Fixes#681.
While here, relocate additional "sources" for uClibc/binutils into packages/
directory.

This required some rework of the libc selection, as moxiebox is a layer on
top of another libc - newlib.
Also, moxiebox'es host VM (`sandbox`) needs a libcrypto on the host. We will
not have it if we're cross-compiling a canadian cross. Fortunately, all moxiebox
needs from libcrypto is SHA256, and it already includes a standalone implementation
of SHA256 in its runtime. Provide a little wrapper that allows moxiebox use
that implementation for the host binary, too.
Also, automate collecting/printing the list of all packages in a given category
(e.g. LIBC or COMP_TOOLS), generate a list of all Kconfig symbols for a given
category.

There are some fixes to the cmse code in mainline gcc that we need to
build an embedded toolchain targetting Cortex-M cpus that support the
v8m extensions.
