Remove from the package some binaries to avoid conflicts

Some binaries were added by the fact all targets have been enabled. This causes
conflicts with other tools. Given those binaries are already provided by the
mingw32-binutils there is no need for this one to provide them as well

WIP: external toolchain cross buildable: binutils

Add a cross buildable binutils package.
The new category is not linked to the regular ports tree to avoid make install,
poudriere and others to catch it automagically

instead of ending with a very complex file removal in the stage, prefer to use
specific plist per arch.

For now only sparc64 tested and added. This version of binutils is stipped down
only the components that are not supported by elftoolchain

Update to 2.27

Remove aarch64 patches which are now upstream
Disable new x86 relocation to avoid incompatibilities with the old base binutils

Fix port when BUREMOVE is not defined

Switch the cloudabi-toolchain port over to llvm-devel.

Farnsworth: "Good news, everyone!" The latest revisions of LLVM trunk
not only have a version of LLD that creates usable binaries for x86-64
and aarch64, it also does a better job at creating Position Independent
Executables than the GNU linker.

Because PIE is going to become pretty important for some of the upcoming
projects (emulation on other OSes), I'd like to go ahead and switch the
cloudabi-toolchain port over to the latest snapshot of LLVM. My goal is
to revert back to a stable version (3.9) when available.

Switching to LLD involves patching up the Binutils ports to no longer
install the GNU linker (and remove the linker scripts that it uses). We
can then simply add a couple of extra symlinks to cloudabi-toolchain to
point to the LLD binary.

At the same time, let's switch over to using the ELF toolchain tools on
FreeBSD 11. That way we can even drop the dependency on Binutils on
those systems.

Extend the Binutils ports to allow deletion of specific tools.

For CloudABI I slowly want to switch away from certain tools provided by
Binutils. For example, it would be really nice if we could switch from
GNU ld to LLD some time in the future. LLD is not ready yet. Some bug
fixes didn't manage to land into 3.8 and it doesn't support aarch64
properly. There are already some tools that we can use, such as nm,
objdump, size, ar and ranlib.

Introduce a BUREMOVE variable that can be set in Binutils slave ports to
remove specific utilities that are installed by default. There doesn't
seem to be any other elegant way to solve this. Set a bunch of utilities
by default and then extend cloudabi-clang to set up symlinks to the LLVM
versions of the tools.

devel/binutils: Revert r353788, it was already covered

I forgot that this port was already fixed in arguably a better way:
In dports, the Makefile.DragonFly file contains this:

  .if ${DFLYVERSION} > 300702
  CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --with-lib-path=/lib:/usr/lib
  .endif

The main makefile should probably have the CONFIGURE_ARGS+= line
added to it unconditionally because it doesn't make sense to
search /usr/local/lib when PORTSDIR != /usr/local.

So DragonFly is fine with the original fix, but FreeBSD should
look at taking it.  I don't think the DFLYVERSION needs to be checked
either.

devel/binutils: Support dev branch of DragonFly

On the development branch of DragonFly, a number of shared system
libraries has moved from /usr/lib to /lib, mirroring what happened on
FreeBSD years ago.  The bfd linker will not follow symlinks, so the
configure.tgt file needs to be updated for DragonFly 3.7+.  This is a
no-op for FreeBSD.

A similar patch has been submitted upstream.

The GNU Binutils are a collection of binary tools. The main ones are:

* ld - the GNU linker.
* as - the GNU assembler.

Most of these programs use BFD, the Binary File Descriptor library, to do
low-level manipulation. Many of them also use the opcodes library to assemble
and disassemble machine instructions.

This port may be used as a replacement for the system binutils and support
features from the latest versions of GCC.

For cross-compilation, see the devel/cross-binutils port.
