scripts, cc/gcc: do not fail on existing symlinks or build.log

If the user builds a toolchain over an existing one, so, without removing
CT_PREFIX_DIR, the build fails as the symlinks already exist, as does the
build.log.

This can also happen (for build.log) if the user first ran in download-
or extract-only.

Patch (with no SoB) originally from:
Phil Wilshire <phil.wilshire@overturenetworks.com>

Modified by me as it did not apply cleanly.
