arch/arm: add option to use *eabihf tuples

Toolchains that use the hard-float ABI now are to be denoted by a tuple
ending in *eabihf, while the prevbious *eabi is now an indication that
the toolchain uses the softfloat ABI.

This is purely a cosmetic thing, for distros to differentiate their
hardfloat-ABI ports from their softfloat-ABI ports.

(note: softfloat ABI does not mean that it is using softfloats; it can
be using hardfloat instructions, but using the softfloat ABI).

     1 This is a somewhat ordered TODO list:

     2 

     3 Recurring tasks:

     4 

     5 - update versions for every tools...

     6 

     7 - update and/or upgrade all samples

     8 

     9 

    10 Non-recurring tasks:

    11 

    12 - update newlib (for enhanced bare metal)

    13   - confirm existing implementation on targets other than AVR32

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

    15 

    16 - multilib

    17 

    18 - Cygwin target (needs newlib)

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

    20 

    21 - Cygwin host

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

    23 

    24 - mingw32 target

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

    26 

    27 - mingw32 host

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

    29     (without requiring Cygwin)

    30 

    31 - uClibc++

    32   - see newlib, above

    33 

    34 - uClinux

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