Save the toolchain configuration to its own file, as an auto-extracting shell script:
- get rid of the 'extractconfig' action, it was cumbersome to use, and badly documented,
- introduce a skeleton for the config script,
- update auto-completion,
- document the config script.

     1 Original patch from H.J. Lu, as reported there:
     2 http://www.nabble.com/PATCH:-Use-short-for-fnstsw-td14775171.html
     3 
     4 fnstsw stores 16bit into %ax. The upper 16bit of %eax is unchanged.
     5 The new assembler (binutils-2.18.50.0.4 and up) will disallow "fnstsw %eax".
