Now that the datastore works dynamically we don't need the update_data calls
so we can just remove them. They're not actually done anything at all for
a while.

<title>gcc: Split builddir saving into its own sstate task</title>

When we stashed the gcc build directory for use in generating the various runtimes
we were being lazy and just used the staging directory. With recipe specific
sysroots this means we're copying a large chunk of data around with the cross
compiler which we don't really need in most cases.

Separate out the data into its own task and inject this into the configure
step. We have to do that here since autotools will wipe out ${B} if it thinks
we're rebuilding and we therefore have to time its recreation after that.

This also takes the opportunity to remove some pointless (as far as I can tell)
conditionals from the do_install code.

getVar() now defaults to expanding by default, thus remove the True
option from getVar() calls with a regex search and replace.

Search made with the following regex: getVar ?\(( ?[^,()]*), True\)

libgcc uses certain options from EXTRA_OECONF as well, curently we are
ignoring them, as a result we do not configure libgcc to match cross gcc
in some cases e.g. ppc/musl should have used 64bit long doubles but
it went for 128-ldbls which is default, works on glibc but not on musl

Small change to python string formatting for error logging.
Previously, tune and availtunes would print out at the end of
the log message.  This change allows them to print out in the
correct locations of the error string.

<title>gcc: Update default Power GCC settings to use secure-plt</title>

The gcc default, bss-plt, will cause errors when using the prelinker.  All
other distributions that I am aware of are using the the secure-plt.  For an
explanation of the differences, the gcc docs:

  Current PowerPC GCC accepts a `-msecure-plt' option that generates code
  capable of using a newer PLT and GOT layout that has the security
  advantage of no executable section ever needing to be writable and no
  writable section ever being executable. PowerPC ld will generate this
  layout, including stubs to access the PLT, if all input files (including
  startup and static libraries) were compiled with `-msecure-plt'.
  `--bss-plt' forces the old BSS PLT (and GOT layout) which can give
  slightly better performance.

The security of the new PLT and ability to run the prelinker outweigh
any performance penalty.

The secure-plt is enabled by default.  The old bss-plt can be enabled by
selecting 'bssplt' in the DISTRO_FEATURES.

<title>gcc: Rework shared work</title>

The current implementation of shared work for gcc is at best confusing. It relies
on the fetch/unpack/patch tasks having exactly the same stamps and if this gets
broken for some reason, its hard to figure out what the problem is. It also
leads to complex code in bitbake.

The benefits of shared work for gcc are clear but a better approach is needed. This
patch adjusts things so that a single new recipe (gcc-source) provides the
fetch/unpack/patch/preconfigure tasks, the rest of gcc simply depends on these tasks
and have no fetch/unpack/patch tasks of their own.

This means we should get the significant benefits (disk usage/performance) of the
single source tree but in a way which has less potential for problems and is
easier for people to understand. The cost is an extra recipe/some inc files
which is probably a good tradeoff.

If configure or any of the components it uses from the shared work directory
change, do_configure may fail.

An existing do_preconfigure was created to handle these conditions, but
a 'sed' operation was missed, and a call to gnu-configize was also missed.
