0e0ecc8bcf PPL: Remove support for PPL and CLooG/PPL
Now that versions of gcc that required PPL are no longer supported
( >= gcc-4.5.x AND <= gcc-4.7.x )
...we no longer require PPL or CLooG/PPL.

This commit:

* Removes PPL
* Removes CLooG/PPL
* Updates the documentation
* Updates build script for CLooG and GCC
* Removes PPL and CLooG/PPL from scripts/addToolVersion.sh and
  scripts/showSamples.sh
* Adds ISL to scripts/addToolVersion.sh and scripts/showSamples.sh

I know that sounds like a lot for one commit, but it was all kind of
inter-tangled.

e4bb360748 file modes: Set files to be non-executable
I was going to start doing some autoconf work, and noticed that
configure.in was executable. Then I noticed Makefile.in was executable.

o.O

So, I ran ```find . -type f -executable``` and found a bunch of files
that shouldn't be set executable.

This commit makes them normal files again.

cd47c091ba eglibc: Remove eglibc support
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.

5f41858c75 docs: credit Konrad EISELE for the initial multilib support
Konrad submitted an initial patch adding multlib support:
    http://sourceware.org/ml/crossgcc/2011-11/msg00040.html

The patch was full of good ideas, but had a few issues, so
I (Yann E. MORIN) started it all from scatch, re-using part
of the original patch. This got implemented in this series:
    hg log -r 446a17b5dd1e:e47d17391ae3

As I forgot to credit Konrad in these changelogs, update the
docs so that the work by Konrad gets credited. Without his
initial effort, we would probably not have had multlib support
so soon. Thank you Konrad!

949254a2e7 docs: --target versus --host
In the very beginnings, eons ago, autotools also got confused by this
whole build vs. host vs. target, and got it wrong. Now they fixed it,
but they want to keep backward compatibility, so the --target is still
recongised, although ./configure will complain if you do so. It is
better to use --host.

dd6ea2508a docs: add an in-depth explanations of the build steps
The build process is quite complex: gcc is built three times, there are
two C library steps, there are those companion libraries...

People often wonder what all these steps do, and why they are needed.

Recently, someone proposed a tutorial on the crossgcc mailing list:
  http://sourceware.org/ml/crossgcc/2011-01/msg00059.html

This meant that there was a need for such a tutorial, and explanations
on how a toolchain is built. So i decide to extend my answers:
  http://sourceware.org/ml/crossgcc/2011-01/msg00060.html
  http://sourceware.org/ml/crossgcc/2011-01/msg00125.html

into proper documentation in crosstool-NG.
