cc/gcc: allow CC_EXTRA_CONFIG_ARRAY on baremetal

The final bare-metal compiler is built using the core backend.
Currently the core uses the CC_CORE_EXTRA_CONFIG_ARRAY variable.

While this works as supposed to, this can leave the user puzzled
in the menuconfig, since all he can see is the core options, not
the final options.

Only show the core options if any of the core passes are needed,
and use the final options in the core-backend if we're issuing
the bare-metal compiler.

     7 The gethostbyname4() lookup method is problematic since it fires out both
     8 the A and AAAA DNS queries in parallel and over the same socket. This
     9 should work in theory, but it turns out that many cheap DSL modems and
    10 similar devices have buggy DNS servers - if the AAAA query arrives too
    11 quickly after the A query, the server will generate only a single reply
    12 with the A query id but returning an error for the AAAA query; we get
    13 stuck waiting for the second reply.
    14 
    15 For gethostbyname4() users affected, disabling IPv6 in the system might
    16 work around the issue, unfortunately it only helps with applications
    17 using AI_ADDRCONFIG (e.g. Firefox); some (notably e.g. Pidgin) neglect
    18 to do that.
    19 
    20 Real fix should be using separate ports for the A and AAAA queries.
