While the effective "default" based on frequent use is "router", the
DEVICE_TYPE variable actually provides a "basic" configuration without
selecting any additional packages.
This is currently set up with the identifier "bootloader", which seems
to be not used at all. However, the only targets not using "router" or
"nas" are actually archs38 and arc770, which use their own value
"developerboard" for DEVICE_TYPE which seems to have been invented when
these targets where added. The latter is not implemented in target.mk,
though, and will fall back to the "basic" set of packages then.
So, to clean this up and make it more readable, let's just define a
DEVICE_TYPE "basic" and use it for the aforementioned cases.

There is no such role as target maintainer anymore, one should always
send corresponding changes for the review and anyone from the commiters
is allowed to merge them or eventually use the hand break and NACK them.
Lets make it clear, that it is solely a community doing the maintenance
tasks.

Currently arc770 is no more "source-only".
Lets update Linux kernel version from 4.9 to 4.14 for arc770.
config-4.14 was simply regenerated with "make kernel_menuconfig".

With update of ARC tools to arc-2016.09 based on GCC v6.x
we have to bump Linux kernel version so both toolchain and
the kernel use the same ARC ABIv4.

Most of currently mentioned CFLAGS in arc770/Makefile
are not really required because:
[1] "-Os -pipe" are set by default in include/target.mk
[2] "-fno-caller-saves" gets enabled via menuconfig
as an extra compiler flag for developers
So the only one that makes sense is "-matomic" and
that one is really essential. Without it many software
packges won't build complainin on unresolved atomic ops.

This switch involved:
[1] Regeneration of config (few options went away)
[2] Regeneration of patches so they apply cleanly (different offsets)
[3] Update of .dts files because we now explicitly specify
memory regions in use as opposed to previously used offset
from 0x8000_0000

This patch introduces support of new boards with ARC cores.
[1] Synopsys SDP board
This is a new-generation development board from Synopsys that
consists of base-board and CPU tile-board (which might have a real
ASIC or FPGA with CPU image).
It sports a lot of DesignWare peripherals like GMAC, USB, SPI, I2C
etc and is intended to be used for early development of ARC-based
products.
[2] nSIM
This is a virtual board implemented in Synopsys proprietary
software simulator (even though available for free for open source
community). This board has only serial port as a peripheral and so
it is meant to be used for runtime testing which is especially
useful during bring-up of new tools and platforms.
What's also important ARC cores are very configurable so there're
many variations of options like cache sizes, their line lengths,
additional hardware blocks like multipliers, dividers etc. And this
board could be used to make sure built software still runs on
different HW configurations.
