config/toolchain: force use of sysroot if OBSOLETE is not set

Use of the sysroot is highly recommended, and the non-sysroot case is
both obsolete and not widely tested.

Before the non-sysroot case can go away, deprecate it.

     4 This is a sample config file for Freescale e500v2 processors (e.g., MPC8548,
     5 MPC8572). It uses eglibc (for e500/SPE patches) and a recent gcc (4.5.1,
     6 for e500v2 DPFP support) and will generate appropriate dual-precision
     7 floating point instructions by default.

     9 Note: If building a Linux kernel with this toolchain, you will want to make
    10 sure -mno-spe AND -mspe=no are passed to gcc to prevent SPE ABI/instructions
    11 from getting into the kernel (which is currently unsupported). At this time,
    12 the kernel build system properly passes those two options, but older kernels
    13 were only passing -mno-spe by default."
