arch: add softfp support

Some architectures support a mixed hard/soft floating point, where
the compiler emits hardware floating point instructions, but passes
the operands in core (aka integer) registers.

For example, ARM supports this mode (to come in the next changeset).

Add support for softfp cross compilers to the GCC and GLIBC
configuration. Needed for Ubuntu and other distros that are softfp.

scripts: use the hardfloat option to set configure and CFLAGS

When hardfloat is selected, we need to pass that selection down to
./configure and in the CFLAGS.

scripts: introduce float type as a string

With the upcoming softfp support, the case..esac test would become
a bit convoluted if it were to test three different booleans.

Introduce a new blind string config option that defaults to the
selected floating point type used.

kernel/linux: fix packed attribute in exported headers

UBI headers (and maybe others as well) are broken because the 'packed'
attribute is not sanitised when the headers are exported to userspace.

Apply the fix from upstream:

(Also, buildroot does the same, BTW)

longer needed, there's a non-test sample with uClibc NPTL, now.

scripts/functions: Fix CT_ExtractGit function.

Change CT_ExtractGit so that it clones the repository, instead of just
symlinking it. After cloning, any given ref is checked out, or if no
ref is given, the HEAD of the repository is checked out.

This makes CT_Extract behave similar for git repositories as it does
for tarballs, so that it for example can be used for passing glibc-ports
as a git repository.

configure: don't check for host system

scripts: check host features with host compiler

Currently, we check host feature in ./configure. This works only for
cross toolchains, but not for canadian toolchains. ./configure has
absolutely no way to know what the host for the toolchain will be;
only the build scripts know.

So, move the headers & libraries checks from ./configure to the build
scripts, early enough in the build, but not before we know the host
compiler and other tools.
