binutils/binutils: add blind option to force use of ld.bfd during build
gold is not capable of building glibc/eglibc, so we have to
force using the BFD linker, ld.bfd.
Offer a blind option that affected components can select to
force use of the BFD linker during the build.

binutils/binutils: also install the wrapper for the internall ld
ld is also installed in PREFIX/TUPLE/bin, so we need to wrap that
as well.

binutils/binutils: hide gold option if no support for current architecture
The gold linker does currently support only a limited set of architectures:
- x86 (32- and 64-bit)
- ARM
Hide the gold option for other architectures.

arch/sparc: add absic support
Add support for building SPARC targeted toolchain.
With this patch I have built a working sparc V8 (32 toolchain).
Testing shows that not all gcc versions works well:
4.4.1 OK (kernel builds and the final kernel can boot)
4.4.2 Not tested
4.4.3 Not tested
4.4.4 BAD (Kernel can build but fails during boot)
4.4.5 BAD (Kernel can build but fails during boot)
4.5.1 BAD (Build fails with a spill related ICE - http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35664)
4.5.2 OK (kernel builds and boots)
I have successfully been using the 4.5.2 version for a few months.
This patch does not add support for the LEON variant.
That may come later.

cc/gcc: fix linking with static PPL 0.11+
PPL 0.11+ installs three libs: lippl, libppl_c and libpwl.
libppl_c has a dependency on libpwl (at least for watchdog stuff).
While gcc correctly links with libppl and libppl_c, it does not
pull libpwl in. In case of shared libs, this is not a problem, as
libppl_c has a NEEDED dependency on libpwl. But for static libs,
that does not work. Although libppl_c.la exists and has a correct
dependency on lipwl, somehow gcc misses it. So we have to force
pulling libpwl when needed.

cc/gcc: hide Linaro options by default
It can be quite confusing for a new-comer to find strange
version numbers for gcc, so hide the Linaro versions by
default.
