scripts/xldd: better find sysroot with old gcc

Only starting with 4.4 does gcc have a -print-sysroot option.
For 4.3 or before, we have to play some tricks:
- ask gcc where libc.so is,
(we expect it in ${sysroot}/usr/lib/libc.so)
- trim /usr/lib/libc.so from the result

    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...).
