scripts: add option to start an interactive debug shell

Add an option that, when a command fails:
- starts an interactive shell with the failed command's environment
- attempts re-execution of the failed command, continues, or aborts
at user's whim.

Before starting the debug-shell, the backtrace is printed.
When exiting for an abort, the standard error message is printed.

Based on an idea and a patch from: Johannes Stezenbach <js@sig21.net>

    11       The sstrip utility, to maximise the striping of ELF binaries
    12       (executables and libraries).
    13       
    14       Buildroot version, forked off the original from ELFkickers.
    15       This one is somewhat maintained by the buildroot guys.
    16       Supports big-endian systems.
    17       
    18       NOTE! Please read.
    19         sstrip is now deprecated in crosstool-NG, as it has a few
    20         shortcomings. For example: it breaks for PPC targets, it
    21         does not build on non-ELF hosts (eg. mingw32, MacOS-X...).
