Since glibc 2.27 glob interface was changed [1] and so
"glob" & "glob64" symbols require glibc 2.27+.
For us that means if we build Binutils on a machine with glibc 2.27+
produced binaries won't be any longer usable on machines with older
glibc.
As an example [2]: build on Ubuntu 18.04 (with glibc 2.27) and try to run
on CentOS 7.x (with glibc 2.17), you'll see this:
---------------------->8-------------------
ldd ld
ld: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.27' not found (required by ld)
---------------------->8-------------------
Now given glob is not really used by Binutils itself (only needed by GDB)
and we build Binutils & GDB separately let's make at least Binutils
more portable.
In theory we may even try to do the same hack for GDB forcing it to use
imported glob implementation. But since GDB is now built strictly by C++
compiler we'll get waaay to many incompatibilities due to multiple changes
of C++ ABI in between GCC 7.5 of Ubuntu 18.04 and GCC 4.8.5 of CentOS 7.x,
so there's no point to even try.

While building a canadian toolchain for windows host (any target),
the build failed for m4 host companion_tool with a recent mingw-w64
(at least 7.0.0).
m4 needs stack smashing protection which is not part of mingw-w64 c
library and an explicit trigger to link w/ libssp is needed.

By setting glibc build system default_cflags to be empty before
building, we will enforce the build system to only use the crosstool-ng
CFLAGS when building glibc.

picolibc is another bare-metal C library, and so should be mapped

Before patches for specific package were searched in
packages/${pkg_name}/${version}. This means that with usage of custom
version, patches wont be applied. This commit makes ct-ng search bundled
patches also in packages/${pkg_name} directory. That means that we can
put some patches in this directory, that will be applied to any version
of this component.
This adds support for using picolibc instead of newlib on embedded
systems.

This commit updates the GDB build script to specify `-static-libgcc`
when `CT_GDB_NATIVE_STATIC_LIBSTDCXX` is enabled. Both libgcc and
libstdc++ are considered to be part of the "standard libraries," and
should be specified by the same flag (the configuration symbol could
potentially use a better name and/or further indirection).
This also semantically aligns the `CT_GDB_NATIVE_STATIC_LIBSTDCXX`
with the equivalent GCC configuration `CT_CC_GCC_STATIC_LIBSTDCXX`,
which also enables static linking of both libgcc and libstdc++.

The glibc will append the content of the CFLAGS variable,
overriding previous flags.
If unset, the CFLAGS variable is not empty, so explicitly set it.
Instead prepend the default CFLAGS flags.

From GCC's standpoint ARC's multilib items are defined by "mcpu" values
which we have quite a few and for all of them might be built optimized
cross-toolchain.
From Glibc's standpoint multilib is just multi-ABI [1] and so very limited
versions are supposed to co-exist (e.g. arc700 & archs).
Here we force Glibc to install libraries in GCC's multilib folder to create
a universal cross-toolchain that has libs optimized for multiple CPU types.
But note we only need to mess with installation paths in case of real
multilib, otherwise we keep default "lib/" paths so that GCC finds default
(the one and only) libs where it expects them to be.
Also here we add a sample which allows to build universal Glibc Linux
toolchain for ARC.
