scripts: add option to start an interactive debug shell

Add an option that, when a command fails:
- starts an interactive shell with the failed command's environment
- attempts re-execution of the failed command, continues, or aborts
at user's whim.

Before starting the debug-shell, the backtrace is printed.
When exiting for an abort, the standard error message is printed.

Based on an idea and a patch from: Johannes Stezenbach <js@sig21.net>
http://sourceware.org/ml/crossgcc/2012-09/msg00144.html

        sstrip is now deprecated in crosstool-NG, as it has a few
yann@2083
    20
        shortcomings. For example: it breaks for PPC targets, it

    21
        does not build on non-ELF hosts (eg. mingw32, MacOS-X...).
