cc/gcc: add the backend/frontend infra for final gcc

Currently, we issue the bare-metal compiler from the pass_1 & pass_2
core compilers, because the final gcc breaks while doing so.

This implies we have to build some libces during the start_files step,
instead of the standard libc step. This is the case for newlib.

By adding a backend/frontend infra to the final gcc, we can abstract
what backend to call: the standard backend for non-bare-metal gcc,
and the core backend for bare-metal.

This patch is just an no-op, it just adds the final backend and
frontend without changing the way bare-metal is built, to come in a
subsequent patch.

     3 I tried to use crosstool-ng to generate a toolchain for Linux on big

     4 endian arm with recent versions of gcc, glibc, etc... but had a few

     5 problems.

     7 It appears that the gcc patch (for gcc 4.2.x)

     8 for big-endian arm (240-arm-bigendian.patch) lacks the change attached

     9 to this mail as 240-arm-bigendian2.patch.
