scripts: refine static linking check to better guide the user

The current mechanism to check if static linking is possible, and the mesage
displayed on failure, can be puzzling to the unsuspecting user.

Also, the current implementation is not using the existing infrastructure,
and is thus difficult to enhance with new tests.

So, switch to using the standard CT_DoExecLog infra, and use four tests to
check for the host compiler:
- check we can run it
- check it can build a trivial program
- check it can statically link that program
- check if it statically link with libstdc++

That should cover most of the problems. Hopefully.

(At the same time, fix a typo in a comment)

This is a somewhat ordered TODO list:

Recurring tasks:

- update versions for every tools...

- update and/or upgrade all samples

Non-recurring tasks:

- update newlib (for enhanced bare metal)

  - confirm existing implementation on targets other than AVR32

  - try to make it generic, will help for uClibc++

- multilib

- Cygwin target (needs newlib)

  - so we can build toolchains that generate code for Windows/Cygwin

- Cygwin host

  - so we can build toolchains that run natively under Windows/Cygwin

- mingw32 target

  - so we can build toolchains that generate code for Windows/Win32

- mingw32 host

  - so we can build toolchains that run natively under Windows/Win32

    (without requiring Cygwin)

- uClibc++

  - see newlib, above

- uClinux

  - check whether we can use newlib under uClinux (?)
