This change, as per #222, reduces the number of supported releases of
gcc to the latest branch releases.
I noticed while doing this work that gcc-4.5.4 was never added, so I
moved patches for gcc-4.5.3 to 4.5.4 and updated the
bfin-unknown-linux-uclibc example. Also, 120-siginfo.patch was fixed
upstream in the 4.5.4 release, so this patch is omitted.
I also bumped the avr sample to 4.9.3 from 4.9.2.
With the addition of gcc-5.x, the gcc release team now releases the
major.minor.0 versions, while updates to the branch are available in
svn/git. We'll address that when we get to issue #219. This change just
removes CC_GCC_5_1 and moves CC_GCC_5_2 to CC_GCC_5, and removes
CC_GCC_5_1_or_later and moves CC_GCC_5_2_or_later to CC_GCC_5_or_later.
This is the first of two part changes, as mentioned in #222.
This change is slated for release in 1.22.0. The next change will be
slated for 1.23.0, and will limit gcc versions to what is on
https://gcc.gnu.org under "Release Series and Status", which is
currently 4.9.3 and 5.2.0, although I will also support the previous
supported version. In this example that would be 4.8.5.
Last, but not least, this change also retires AVR32 support.

Those items have now been implemented:
- mingw32 target
we have it now, and even mingw64 too
- mingw32 host
it is certainly possible to canadian-build a toolchain to run
in a mingw host
- Cygwin host
it is possible to build a toolchain in Cygwin, and it is probably
possible to canadian-build it as well

Add TODO list for m4, autoconf, automake and libtool.
Building our own versions would remove burden from the users
who have older versions on their distributions, and are not
ready/able/allowed to upgrade.
