* DWARF unwinder related
  + Force DWARF2 compliant .debug_frame (gcc 4.8 defaults to DWARF4
    which kernel unwinder can't grok).
  + Discard the additional .eh_frame generated
  + Discard the dwarf4 debug info generated by -gdwarf-2 for normal
    no debug case

* 4.8 already uses arc600 multilibs for -mno-mpy

* switch to using uclibc compiler (to get -mmedium-calls and -mno-sdata)
  and also since buildroot can only use 1 toolchain

This adds support for an ARC Virtual Platform. This platform is based on the
System C standard promoted by the OSCI (Open System C Initiative) and uses
nSIM to simulate the ARC CPU core itself.

Users can build a virtual SoC by combining System C models of peripherals
and CPU cores.
