toolchain-internal: skip gcc-intermediate when possible
When NPTL support was introduced, gcc required a three stages build process. Since gcc 4.7, this is no longer necessary, and it is possible to get back to a two stages build process. This patch takes advantage of this, by doing a two stages build process when possible. We introduce a few hidden kconfig options: * BR2_GCC_VERSION_NEEDS_THREE_STAGE_BUILD, which is set by the gcc Config.in logic to indicate that the compiler might need a three stages build. Currently, all versions prior to 4.7.x are selecting this kconfig option. * BR2_TOOLCHAIN_LIBC_NEEDS_THREE_STAGE_BUILD, which indicates whether the C library might need a three stages build. This is the case for eglibc, and uClibc when NPTL is enabled. * BR2_TOOLCHAIN_NEEDS_THREE_STAGE_BUILD finally is enabled when both of the previous options are enabled. It indicates that a three stages build is actually needed. In addition to those options, the uClibc/gcc build logic is changed to use only a two stages build process when possible.
