libc/glibc: commonalise setting of the minimum supported kernel version

It will be possible to use that also with eglibc, so this hunk belongs to
the common code.

libc/glibc: use the common start_files procedure

Use the common procedure, shared between glibc and eglibc. This requires
that glibc-specific bits be included in the shared procedure.

But still build the full libc with the glibc-specific procedure. This will
be commonalised in a future commit.

libc/eglibc: cleanup common code for sharing with glibc

Some stuff is eglibc-specific, so needs to be conditonal.

libc/eglibc: move generic code to a common file

The build procedure for eglibc is generic enough to
be shared between glibc and eglibc. This includes:
- headers install (empty!)
- start files build
- complete libc build
- libc finish (empty!)
- add-ons list

libc/mingw: move content of do_libc_headers into do_libc_start_files

It is unnecessary to split C library preparation into two steps, as only
one really makes sense. So, do_libc_headers is bound to be withdrawn
short-term, in favor of do_libc_start_files.

mingw already had all its start files installation in do_libc_headers, and
do_libc_start_files was empty, just migrate the content of the former into
the latter.

libc-glibc: remove 2.3.6

This is an obsolete version which is no longer used by any sample (the only
user, the ia64 sample, has been removed).

It also makes the code path a bit complex, with twists just to accomodate
that version. Removing the version will make those twists go away, and
will ease commonalisation of glibc and eglibc in the future (hopefully!).

arch: remove ia64

ia64 is broken in every gcc/glibc combinations I tested (except for the
existing sample that used very old versions).

Nobody complained on the list about not being able to build recent versions.

So the only way forward I can see is to remove the architecture altogether.

kernel/linux: longterm kernel location changed

The location of the longterm Linux kernels on FTP has changed.
Here is a simple (but not very versatile) fix.
