debug/gdb: we don't care if the host tic is shared or static

Because we need our own host tic, we have to build it; and we do build
it statically for now.

But as MacOS/Darwin/Whatever-you-call-it does not support static linking
(what a shame!), it fails.

Anyway, we don't really care it being shared, in the end.

Rather than spread the prefix/suffix through-out the code, just
centralise the name setting in one place. Beside, transform-name
would not be possible without setting the name at a single location.

./configure does check for the presence of gz and bzip2, so we can

On the other hand, more recent formats (eg. XZ) are not yet widely
available, and we do not want, and can't, force the user to install
them as a pre-requisite.

So, build up a list of allowed tarball formats based on the available
decompressors. For no, this is a static list, but the upcoming XZ
support will conditionnaly add to this list.
