arch: add softfp support

Some architectures support a mixed hard/soft floating point, where
the compiler emits hardware floating point instructions, but passes
the operands in core (aka integer) registers.

For example, ARM supports this mode (to come in the next changeset).

Add support for softfp cross compilers to the GCC and GLIBC
configuration. Needed for Ubuntu and other distros that are softfp.

     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.
