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/

     4 fnstsw stores 16bit into %ax. The upper 16bit of %eax is unchanged.
     5 The new assembler (binutils-2.18.50.0.4 and up) will disallow "fnstsw %eax".
