This was build tested with all core packages on all targets
successfully.
This was run tested on the following systems:

The size of some of the initramfs images from lantiq/xrx increased by
240 bytes.

Add the patches with real changes from the binutils 2.40 stable branch.
I am not aware that we ran into any of these problems, but I think it is
better to take the existing stable patches.
They were exported like this:
git format-patch binutils-2_40...origin/binutils-2_40-branch
I removed the patches changing the version numbers and updating the
translations only.
I removed the following patches:
*Automatic-date-updat*
001-Re-enable-development.-Update-version-to-2.40.0.patch
004-Updated-translations-for-the-gas-and-binutils-sub-di.patch
015-Updated-Swedish-translation-for-the-binutils-sub-dir.patch

This was apparently introduced to recreate the toolchain (wipe
staging_dir/toolchain*, but keep build_dir/toolchain*, followed by a
`make toolchain/compile`).
But it leaves leftovers and causes re-links to happen at src_install phase,
because of the changed paths, possibly adding yet another source of issues.
With the prior commits removing various hacks related to the "initial"
folder we can remove installing it twice altogether.
The recreated toolchain is exactly the same as before.

This reverts commit 9d1b619cb1.
No Linaro binutils are supported anymore, the leftover removal commit
missed one line.

In [0] support for ARC specific binutils were added, which was later removed
again [Fixes:].
Upstream binutils never had an extlib.

Spell out what we want to enable or disable. This prevents host libs to leak in,
so everyone get the same feature set.

For some reason, one of the configure checks results in some infinite
loop and ends up spawning endless gcc processes, causing OOM. Just pass
a configure var to avoid it.

Commit 53470bdf32 ("toolchain/binutils: Add binutils 2.34") logs refreshed
patches, but also adds a typo causing failed builds on mipsel64 platforms,
including the malta subtarget. Update the patch to fix this.
This fixes the following build error:
make[7]: *** No rule to make target 'elf64ltsmip.o', needed by 'ld-new'. Stop.

We currently support four versions of binutils in parallel. Let's
just keep the latest two and drop the older ones before the next
one comes around.

Switch to binutils version 2.34 for all CPUs by default. The ARC CPUs
do not need any special binutils version any more.
This increases the image size by 0.2% on MIPS (lantiq)
Tested on lantiq, ipq40xx

This seems to have been omitted over-time.
Using the default Host/Configure seems to work fine.
The last patches to have touched this in a major way were ~10 years ago:
33a0eb3613 ("cosmetic & coherency fixes")
7eb1589875 ("build system refactoring in preparation for allowing
packages to do host-build steps")

from Binutils Version; let's remove this leftover as well.

With forced PIE and SSP support I ran into this assertion failure.
backport two patches to fix this problem from the binutils 2.28 branch.
This fix is already included in binutils 2.28.1 and 2.29.
