Some users (like myself) may want to omit the crosstool-NG version
from the binaries' versioning output, as it can be incredibly long
and not too helpful. Add a config option to disable it. The possible
combinations are as follows:
- crosstool-NG version (default)
- crosstool-NG version - custom toolchain ID
- Custom toolchain ID
- No crosstool-NG version OR custom toolchain ID

On cygwin, creating both "foo.exe" and "foo" results in 'ln -sf'
returning an error ("File exists"). However, ln silently removes
the "foo.exe" in this case, so an attempt to re-run the same command
manually then succeeds.
Hence, make binutils.sh also create symlinks with .exe prefix,
using the new & shiny routine.

The -lcygwin -lc actually breaks the build: elf2flt picks up the symbols for getopt/optarg via
<getopt.h> in binutils-X.Y/include, where optarg is declared without dllimport attribute.
Therefore it pulls in getopt() from libc/libcygwin, but since optarg is not prefixed with
_imp__, it is pulled from libiberty. But the object file in libiberty also contains getopt()
thus resulting in multiple definitions thereof.
While there, kill extraneous -ldl passed into configure - configure detects -ldl successfully.

... and then use the right option. See the note in scripts/functions
on where we should use ${foo} and where just 'foo'; this boils down to
whether we can expect the build tools override to be in effect (e.g. in
the actual build scripts) or not (i.e. outside of scripts/build).
While running in scripts/functions, or in scripts/crosstool-NG.sh the
build tools override directory (.build/tools/bin) may have not been
set up (yet, or at all).
Also, modify the installed scripts (populate, xldd) accordingly.

CT_TARGET is composed as "${CT_ARCH}${CT_ARCH_SUFFIX}", so CT_TARGET may
become something like "armv7", for example. This is used by the configure
script to set the "CPU" variable in the Makefile, leading to a commad line
containing
-DTARGET_armv7 -DTARGET_CPU="armv7"
In this case the compilation of elf2flt.c fails with "Don't know how to
support your CPU architecture??". Passsing "CPU=${CT_ARCH}" in the make
command line overrides the configured value and solves the problem.

The referenced commit replaced 'make' with '${make}' everywhere. This is
wrong for at least the utilities that we may build as companion tools
(make, libtool): this will always invoke the version detected by configure
by supplying the absolute path. In other words, the wrappers in
.build/tools/bin are not fallbacks - they are either temporary (in case
a respective companion tool is built) or permanent redirectors.
This is the reason why the PATH= has .build/*/buildtools/bin at higher
precedence than .build/tools/bin; the latter has the versions detected by
configure and the former has the versions built as companion tools.
Revert the rest of the gang (grep/sed/...) for consistency. After all,
we may decide to supply some of them as well (awk, for instance).

On the stage "core gcc pass-2" the following layout is created:
1) buildtools/bin/TARGET-{ar,as,elf2flt,flthdr,ld,ld.bfd,ranlib,strip}
2) buildtools/TARGET/bin/{ar,as,elf2flt,flthdr,ld,ld.bfd,ranlib,strip}
3) x-tools/TARGET/bin/TARGET-{ar,as,elf2flt,flthdr,ld,ld.bfd,ranlib,strip}
4) x-tools/TARGET/TARGET/bin{ar,as,elf2flt,flthdr,ld,ld.bfd,ranlib,strip}
where both (1) and (2) are symlinks to (3). This effectively renders
core pass-2 gcc with elf2flt linker unusable.

We check for apps:
* make
* sed
* grep
* awk
* libtool/libtoolize
* install
* patch
* and more
...during configure. Our scripts should be consistent about using the
variables that define where the found tool was found.
Of course, we do hard-link these tools in buildtools, but that should be
a backup for the components we are building. Our scripts should always
use the tools we find.

The Xtensa processor architecture is a configurable, extensible,
and synthesizable 32-bit RISC processor core. Processor and SOC vendors
can select from various processor options and even create customized
instructions in addition to a base ISA to tailor the processor for
a particular application.
Because of the configurability, the build process requires one additional
step for gcc, binutils, and gdb to update the default configuration.
These configurations are packed into an 'overlay' tar image, and are
simply untarred on top of the default configuration during the build.

Without this fix, elf2flt will blow up complaining that it can't resolve

When try to build the static toolchain, binutils failed.
I have checked the libtool script, and found that the following option
-all-static
-static
-static-libtool-libs
are processed in a strange way. If any one of those three options
appears firstly in the cmdline, all others will be neglected. Our
LDFLAGS is ".... -static -all-static -o", so the -static option
takes the real effect, and the -all-static has no useage actually!
that is the cause of the failure.

Move the actual binutils code to a backend function that builds the

This split is currently a no-op, but is required for the upcoming

one for build/build/target, and one for build/host/target.

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:
- there are fewer directories to save/restore
- there are fewer symlinks to create for binutils
- the PATH is shorter
