kernel/linux: fix using custom tarball

The custom-tarball symlink was created in CT_SRC_DIR, when it
should be created in CT_TARBALLS_DIR.

The script that is installed, and which sole purpose is to dump

libc/glibc: change default of "forced unwind" to 'y'

Virtually all our targets do support stack unwinding. For some of
them, ./configure can't detect that, and the build fails later on.

So, default to force unwind, and let the user disable it if it
breaks in his/her case.

scripts/functions: test for decompressors before use

./configure does check for the presence of gz and bzip2, so we can
safely use them in the build scripts.

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.

configure: add test for xz-utils

Some upstream now release tarballs compressed with xz, along with the
more traditional bzip2 and/or gzip tarballs. xz (and its predecessor
lzma) achieves better compression, so is a good candidate to shorten
the time it takes to download the source tarballs.

Enable downloading xz-cmopressed tarballs if the user has xz-utils.

Simplify the way the custom tarball is handled:

- at download, simply link the custom tarball to:
"linux-custom.${custom_extension}"
- at extract, the above allows to simply extract "linux-${LINUX_VERSION}"
where LINUX_VERISON is set to the fake version="custom"

scripts/functions: always prefer the mirror

Currently, the mirror can be used either:
- as a fallback in case upstream is unavailable (default behavior)
- as the preferred source for downloads

But the most common use-case seems to provide a truely-LAN mirror
to speed up downloads in big corpos', and/or provide a 'trusted'
source for the tarballs.

So, make the following changes;
- if a mirror is specified, always try that before trying upstream

scripts/functions: cvs retrieval first tries the mirror for tarballs

The cvs download helper looks for the local tarballs dir to see if it

the actual fetch to upstream via cvs.

In the process, it does not even try to get a tarball from the local
mirror, which can be useful if the mirror has been pre-populated
manually (or with a previously downloaded tree).

Fake a tarball get with the standard tarball-download helper, but
without specifying any upstream URL, which makes the helper directly
try the LAN mirror.

Of course, if no mirror is specified, no URL wil be available, and
the standard cvs retrieval will kick in.

svn is needed to download eglibc from the upstream repository.
In some situations, though, it can happen that:
- the developpers' machines do not have svn
- a LAN mirror has been set-up with pre-downloaded eglibc tarballs
In this case, it makes sense not to hard-depend on svn.

So, if svn is missing, just say so, and add a comment in the
menuconfig.
