scripts/functions: fix downloading with aria2
In case the remote file does not exist (and probably for some
other reasons as well), aria2 nonetheless creates an empty file
(or not empty for some other reasons).
The solution is to delete the file whenever aria2 fails.

debug/strace: fix strace 4.5.19 to properly build with latest Linux kernels
Here's a couple of patches to get strace 4.5.19 to configure and build
properly with the latest kernel headers. Not pretty, but hopefully
enough while we wait for 4.5.20 to be released.
With the current strace-4.5.19 patches I failed to get the configure
script running even on my host environment. Also, when cross building
the configure script needs to look for the proper system headers to be
able to properly set HAVE_LINUX_NETLINK_H. Otherwise you get:
[EXTRA] Building strace
[ERROR] /home/jocke/x-tools/targets/src/strace-4.5.19/net.c:976:
error: field 'nl' has incomplete type
[ERROR] make[2]: *** [net.o] Error 1
[ERROR] make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
The fix was simple, backport a change set from the git[1] tree and run
autoreconf to update the configure script.

debug/tools: set the ncurses extension to .tar.gz
TRying to download every extension in turn takes ages, so
help the helper by telling what extension to retrieve.

scripts/functions: add aria2, a powerfull downloader
aria2 is a powerfull downloader that is capable of chunking and
parallel retrieval.
Due to li;itations in crosstool-NG retrieval facilities, it's not possible
to take fully advantage of aria2. It might happen that, in the future,
those limitations get lifted away, so we can take use features such as
parallel downloading from more than one server at the same time. For now,
it should still speed up downloads thanks to parallel downloading of chunks.

config: fix generated config files when GREP_OPTIONS set --color=always
grep is used when generating some .in files (in config.gen). If GREP_OPTIONS
contains --color=always, then the generated files will contains some escape
sequences setting the color, and mconf would choke on those escape sequences.
Always set and export an empty GREP_OPTIONS to avoid that.
