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.

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.

scripts: check for, and warn about an unset CT_PREFIX_DIR

The user shall provide a directory to install the toolchain into.
If he/she does not, this is an error, and shall be detected properly,
rather than relying on failure down the road.

Thanks to "Pedro I. Sanchez" <psanchez@colcan.ca> for pointing out
the issue:

debug/gdb: Add support for GDB 7.0.1 (minor release)

Signed-off-by: Joachim Nilsson <jocke@vmlinux.org>

config: don't force the vendor part in the tuple

Note however that some configurations (eg. arm-elf) will still
have the vendor part 'unknown' forced in (by config.sub).

samples: update armeb-unknown-linux-uclibcgnueabi

binutils/binultils: import binutils-2.20 patches from OE

This is a set of patches for binutils-2.20 that have been "ported", or rather
shamelessly stolen, from the OpenEmbedded project:

http://cgit.openembedded.org/cgit.cgi/openembedded/tree/recipes/binutils/binutils-2.20

Tried and tested on Arm (big-endian Xscale, and little-endian i.MX27) with GCC 4.4.2
