scripts/functions: force extract folder to archive basename

Some archives like those of the 2011.07 revisions of Linaro GCC contain a folder
name different from the archive basename, which leads to errors afterwards, e.g.
when patching. E.g.:
gcc-linaro-4.5-2011.07.tar.bz2 extracts to gcc-linaro-4.5-2011.07-0/

This patch changes CT_Extract() to force the extraction of all archives to a
folder named like the archive basename. E.g.:
gcc-linaro-4.5-2011.07.tar.bz2 now extracts to gcc-linaro-4.5-2011.07/

    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...).
