libc/newlib: build newlib in the proper step

Currently, newlib is built in the start_file step, which is wrong, but was
needed when the baremetal integration was... well, 'unfinished'.

Now that we build the baremetal compiler from the final cc step, and a
proper core gcc in pass-1 and pass-2, we can move the newlib build to the
step do_libc, where it belongs.

    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...).
