scripts/populate: properly locate the sysroot and required tools

This fixes two problems:
- the sysroot might be in a sub-directory (think SYSROOT_DIR_PREFIX)
- it is not needed to have the target tuple to properly detect the sysroot
and the required tools

As a side effect, this script is now no longer dependent on the target
tuple, and in the future, we might be able to share it across many
toolchains (when/if we can install all of them in the same place).

 # Compute Alpha-specific values

 CT_DoArchTupleValues () {

     # The architecture part of the tuple:

     CT_TARGET_ARCH="${CT_ARCH}${CT_ARCH_ALPHA_VARIANT}"

 }
