gcc: promote PKGVERSION and BUGURL options to toolchain level

This patch promotes the PKGVERSION and BUGURL options to toolchain level so that
all toolchain components supporting them can benefit from them.

These options are passed to configure through --with-pkgversion and
--with-bugurl.

They are supported by binutils 2.18+, gcc 4.3+, eglibc 2.9+ and gdb 7.0+.

     1 	With latest versions of glibc, a lot of apps failed on a PaX enabled
     2 	system with:
     3 		 cannot enable executable stack as shared object requires: Permission denied
     4 	
     5 	This is due to PaX 'exec-protecting' the stack, and ld.so then trying
     6 	to make the stack executable due to some libraries not containing the
     7 	PT_GNU_STACK section.  Bug #32960.  <azarah@gentoo.org> (12 Nov 2003).
     8 
     9 	Patch also NPTL. Bug #116086. <kevquinn@gentoo.org> (20 Dec 2005).
