This commit adds support for the Atmel AVR 8-bit RISC architecture.
This is the first 8-bit architecture to be added to crosstool-ng so the
configuration options for 8-bit architectures are added here as well.
gcc has had support for AVR for quite a while, at least since the 4.3
series for the currently popular ATmega microcontroler series.
The AVR architecture only supports bare-metal toolchains.
gcc for the AVR 8-bit architecture, usually referred to as avr-gcc, is
commonly used in conjunction with the avr-libc library which provides
additional resources for the Atmel AVR 8-bit microcontrollers.
avr-gcc can also be found as a supported package in some recent Linux
distributions.
This commit also closes#66

As posted on http://www.eglibc.org/
====================
EGLIBC is no longer developed and such goals are now being addressed
directly in GLIBC.
====================
I'm not interested in maintaining build support for unsupported
software.
Older branches of crosstool-ng continue to have eglibc support.
If you find issues with older branches, I'm always open to pull
requests.
Removing eglibc also frees up glibc cleanup and build optimization.

Technically, I don't forbid powerpcle support either, but I'm not sure that
there is any library/compiler support for that at the moment (though the hw
technically makes it possible).
powerpc64le needs glibc 2.19 and gcc 4.9. I haven't looked into the support
tools, but at least gdb 7.5 is too old (7.7.1 definitely has support).
Also make powerpc64 non-experimental. It's practically old at this point.

Well, leave the prompt as an OBSOLETE thing, scheduled to

Toolchains that use the hard-float ABI now are to be denoted by a tuple
ending in *eabihf, while the prevbious *eabi is now an indication that
the toolchain uses the softfloat ABI.
This is purely a cosmetic thing, for distros to differentiate their
hardfloat-ABI ports from their softfloat-ABI ports.
(note: softfloat ABI does not mean that it is using softfloats; it can
be using hardfloat instructions, but using the softfloat ABI).

It's been some time now we've had those features, so unmark them
being experimental.
It does not mean everything is perfect, but may gather some more
testing of those features.

Add Microblaze architecture support.
This depends on EXPERIMENTAL, as upstream projects do not yet
include full support to build a modern microblaze compiler.
This is in the process of being updated, but is not currently
publicly accessible.

First, 'SUPPORT' should be spelled 'SUPPORTS'.
Second, 'SUPPORT_XXX' really means 'supports --with-xxx', so rename the
affected options accordingly. Update the affected archs to match the new
namings.

ARM compilers can be built for soft float (software only, floats in
core registers), hard float (uses floating point instructions, floats
in FPU registers), or the half-way house softfp (uses floating point
instructions, floats in core registers).

Make it explicit that a variable is an array bu the name of the variable.
It will be used later when .config gets munged to allow both multiple
arguments and arguments with spaces at the same time to be passed from the
configuration down to the build scripts.

The latest kconfig stuff is more stringent when it comes to validating
the dependency of the symbols. It is no longer possible to have a symbol
depend on itself (such as our construct for arch/cc/libc/... was doing).
Fix our generated-file infrastructure to avoid these situations when the
new kconfig stuff will be merged (in a following changeset).

Add support for building SPARC targeted toolchain.
With this patch I have built a working sparc V8 (32 toolchain).
Testing shows that not all gcc versions works well:
4.4.1 OK (kernel builds and the final kernel can boot)
4.4.2 Not tested
4.4.3 Not tested
4.4.4 BAD (Kernel can build but fails during boot)
4.4.5 BAD (Kernel can build but fails during boot)
4.5.1 BAD (Build fails with a spill related ICE - http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35664)
4.5.2 OK (kernel builds and boots)
I have successfully been using the 4.5.2 version for a few months.
This patch does not add support for the LEON variant.
That may come later.

ia64 is broken in every gcc/glibc combinations I tested (except for the

Nobody complained on the list about not being able to build recent versions.
So the only way forward I can see is to remove the architecture altogether.

This adds selection for one of the o32, n32 and n64 ABIs.
Later, we can easily use those boolean options, rather than
relying on a user-supplied string option.

For uClibc, the name of the Blackfin architecture is 'bfin'. Actually,
the naming of the architecture is quite messy: for toolchain tuples
and uClibc, it's bfin, but for the kernel, it's blackfin. We've
arbitraly choosen to name it "blackfin" in Crosstool-NG.
Add Blackfin-related uClibc patch to fix a build failure related to
fork() being used in unistd/daemon.c.

Even if the selected ARCH does not support different bitness (or we do
not support building with another bitness), still select the appropriate
bitness.
Don't select unneeded config knobs. Don't select non-existing config knobs.
Use the "no patch" config knob, instead of pointing to an non-exiting local
patch dir. Simplify the tuple-related scripts. Update the samples.
Add config option to build wtarget code with THUMB interworking.
This is used to build the C library as well as all other code
that runs on the target.
