libc: hide no-thread for those C libraries that do not support it

Building non-threaded glibc has been unsupported for a long time, now:
http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2005-08/msg00091.html

As eglibc is a spin-off of glibc: ditto.

So do not offer that possibility in the menuconfig.
Thanks to Thomas Petazzoni for spotting, and helping to solve, the issue!

    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...).
