The final bare-metal compiler is built using the core backend.
Currently the core uses the CC_CORE_EXTRA_CONFIG_ARRAY variable.
While this works as supposed to, this can leave the user puzzled
in the menuconfig, since all he can see is the core options, not
the final options.
Only show the core options if any of the core passes are needed,
and use the final options in the core-backend if we're issuing
the bare-metal compiler.

gcc-4.8 comes with a new library to sanitise memory access:
- heap-, stack-, and global-buffer overflow, use-after-free
- data-races between threads
This library requires some _np parts of the API, which are not
implemented in the (old) LinuxThreads, which is still available
in uClibc.
Since NPTL requires a i486 or above, i386 are stuck with using LT,
which precludes building the libsanitizer.
Disable libsanitizer, a bit like libatomic is.

In gcc-'s core and final passes, do not print 'core' or 'final' in

Also, as we use the core backend to build the bare-metal final gcc,
it can be disturbing to read 'core' while we're in fact in 'final'.

- pass those extra flags to components

Both core pass-1 and -2 compilers are unconditionally built,

Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>
Up until now, all conditions requiring a core pass-1 was when the
threading implementation used was NPTL. So we only built the core
pass-1 when NPTL was used.
Now, things have changed (what? when? Dunno...), and some bare-metal
canadian toolchains fail to build if a core pass-1 is not present.
OTOH, a core pass-1, although not needed for non-NPTL builds, does
no harm at all if it is present.
So, unconditionally build a core pass-1 (but still pass conditional
options to the core backend).

Currently, we rely on an existing external cross-compiler targetting
the target, to build the C library.
This can pause quite a few problems if that compiler is different from
the one we are building, because it could introduce some ABI issues.
This patch removes this dependency, by building the core compilers
as we do for standard cross, and also by building the binutils and
gcc, for running on the build machine.
This means we no longer need to offer the cross-sompiler selection in
the menuconfig.

There really is no good reason to install the core compilers in their
own places, one for each pass. We can install them with the other
build tools.
Also, this implies that:

- the PATH is shorter

In case we build a baremetal compiler, use the standard passes:
- core_cc is used to build the C library;
- as such, it is meant to run on build, not host;
- the final compiler is meant to run on host;
As the current final compiler step can not build a baremetal compiler,
call the core backend from the final step.
NB: Currently, newlib is built during the start_files pass, so we have
to have a core compiler by then... Once we can build the baremetal
compiler from the final cc step, then we can move the newlib build to
the proper step, and then get rid of the core pass-1 static compiler...

Currently, we issue the bare-metal compiler from the pass_1 & pass_2
core compilers, because the final gcc breaks while doing so.
This implies we have to build some libces during the start_files step,
instead of the standard libc step. This is the case for newlib.
By adding a backend/frontend infra to the final gcc, we can abstract
what backend to call: the standard backend for non-bare-metal gcc,
and the core backend for bare-metal.
This patch is just an no-op, it just adds the final backend and
frontend without changing the way bare-metal is built, to come in a
subsequent patch.
