Newer GCC versions are reported to improve code size on various ARM
devices, which is why newer u-boot versions require them now.
There have also been user reports of data corruption issues fixed on
MIPS by updating from GCC 5 to GCC 7.
This update was previously held up by these two MIPS compile issues,
which have since been fixed:

Configure variable SSP_SUPPORT is ambiguous for packages (tor, openssh,
avahi, freeswitch). It means 'toolchain supporting SSP', but for toolchain
and depends it means 'build gcc with libssp'.
Musl no longer uses libssp (1877bc9d8f), it has internal support, so
SSP_SUPPORT was disabled leading some package to not use SSP.
No information why Glibc and uClibc use libssp, but they may also provide
their own SSP support. uClibc used it own with commit 933b588e25 but it was
reverted in f3cacb9e84 without details.
Create an new configure GCC_LIBSSP and automatically enable SSP_SUPPORT
if either USE_MUSL or GCC_LIBSSP.

GCC supports starting version 5 --enable-default-ssp and starting version 6
--enable-default-pie.
It produces hardened binaries by default without dealing with package
compilation flags.

This fixes GCC 7 compilation when GRAPHITE is selected.
The path is replaced with $(TOOLCHAIN_DIR), while it should be
$(STAGING_DIR_HOST). To keep in sync with the path of gmp,
mpfr and mpc, I'm using $(TOPDIR)/staging_dir/host.

This causes various issues in other places that assume that host
binaries are staged in STAGING_DIR_HOST.
Since all the right places use HOST_BUILD_PREFIX, override that instead.
This fixes some issues with quilt on toolchain dirs

arc-2016.09 is the most recent toolchain for ARC cores and
it is based on top of upstream Binutils 2.27 and GCC 6.2.1.
With updated major version of GCC we copied all GCC 6.x patches
for ARC as well as Bintils 2.27 patches.
Note that toochain sports ARCv4 ABI and so must be used
with 4.8+ Linux kernels. Even though it will build v4.4 kernel
perfectly fine on attempt to run user-space apps they won't
work with older kernel. That said previuosly sent RFC patches with
Linux kernel update are required:

If the staging dir was deleted, the build needs to recompile some files.

No extra libc header build step is done, so no extra toolchain is needed

This change adds support of ARC ISAv2 processors in
OpenWRT toolchain.
In general gcc for ARC may compile code for both ISA versions
simultaneously but libgcc will be built only for default
architecture that's why it's necessary to specify --with-cpu
on gcc configuration.
As for uClibc we need to use different configurations for
different ARC ISAs.
