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.
Some patches are required in avr-libc for a toolchain with gcc 5.x to
work. These patches are still not part of any avr-libc release version,
so the config sample currently forces 4.9.x to avoid requiring to clone
avr-libc trunk.
