configure: rationalise error messages with meaningful texts

Currently, error messages just state the obvious: a required
component is required. While in some cases, there is not much
else to say, in some other cases we could tell much more.

For example, a missing libstdc++ means no static toolchain.

Also, format error and warning messages in a similar fashion,
with a {error,warning} intro, followed by the message specified
by the caller.

     1 This is a somewhat ordered TODO list:
     2 
     3 Recuring 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 (?)
