cc: add options to differentiate the need for pass-1 and pass-2

In some cases, building the core pass-1 is unneeded, as the C library
will not try to build anything when installing headers, or sill not
install anything at all.

This is for example the case for newlib, wihch does not require a core
pass-1 since it builds nothing and installs no header.

This should also be the case for newer glibc-es with newer gcc-es,
which no longer require a core pass-1, since the circular dependency
glibc <-> gcc (about TLS?) has been resolved.
