debug/gdb: fix runtime sysroot

This patch sets the runtime sysroot to fix the following GDB warning:
"Unable to find dynamic linker breakpoint function.
GDB will be unable to debug shared library initializers
and track explicitly loaded dynamic code."

The sysroot can later be changed within gdb with the `set sysroot`
command if necessary.

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

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