crosstool-ng: CREDITS@aa1a9fbd6eb8

Debug facilities:
- add a framework to easily add new ones
- add gdb as a first debug facility
- add patches for gdb
After the kernel checked its installed headers, clean up the mess of .checked.* files.
Reorder scripts/crosstool.sh:
- dump the configuration early
- renice early
- get info about build system early, when setting up the environment
- when in cross or native, the host tools are those of the build system, and only in this case
- elapsed time calculations moved to scripts/functions
Remove handling of the color: it's gone once and for all.
Update tools/addToolVersion.sh:
- handle debug facilities
- commonalise some code
- remove dead tools (cygwin, tcc)
Point to my address for bug reports.

     1 I would like to thank these fine people for making crosstool-NG possible:

     3   Dan KEGEL, the original author of crosstool: http://www.kegel.com/

     4     Dan was very helpfull and willing to help when I build my first toolchains.

     5     I owe him one. Thank you Dan!

     6     Some crosstool-NG scripts have code snippets coming almost as-is from the

     7     original work by Dan.

     9   Allan CLARK for his investigations on building toolchains on MacOS-X.

    10     Allan made extensive tests of the first alpha of ct-ng on his MacOS-X

    11     and unveiled some bash-2.05 weirdness.

    13   Enrico WEIGELT for some improvements of the build procedure:

    14     - cxa_atexit disabling for C libraries not supporting it (uClibc)

    16   Robert P. J. DAY:

    17     - some small improvements to the configurator, misc prompting glitches

    18     - 'sanitised' patches for binutils-2.17

    20 More to come as they help.
