binutils: split binutils to backend/frontend, a-la cc_core

Move the actual binutils code to a backend function that builds the
required combo of build/host/target as requested by a frontend.

This split is currently a no-op, but is required for the upcoming
canadian-cross rework, where we'll be needing to build two binutils,
one for build/build/target, and one for build/host/target.

This applies to the three binutils:
- GNU binutils
- elf2flt
- sstrip

    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...).
