cc/gcc: build core compilers for canadian

Currently, we rely on an existing external cross-compiler targetting
the target, to build the C library.

This can pause quite a few problems if that compiler is different from
the one we are building, because it could introduce some ABI issues.

This patch removes this dependency, by building the core compilers
as we do for standard cross, and also by building the binutils and
gcc, for running on the build machine.

This means we no longer need to offer the cross-sompiler selection in
the menuconfig.

    12       Crosstool-NG relies on some external tools to be recent enough, namely:
    13         make = 3.81 (in some cases)
    14         m4 >= 1.4.12
    15         autoconf >= 2.63
    16         automake >= 1.10.2
    17         libtool >= 2.2.4
    18       
    19       If your system has older versions, we can build them for you,
    20       but you are strongly encouraged to update your system instead!
