toolchain: add support for external toolchain profiles and download
Instead of letting the user define all the details of his external toolchain, we define a set of profiles for well-known external toolchains (CodeSourcery ones only at the moment, can easily be extended with other toolchains). Once a profile has been choosen, the user is offered the choice of either letting Buildroot download and install the external toolchain, or (as before) to tell Buildroot where the toolchain is installed on the system. We of course provide a "custom profile", through which the user can configure Buildroot to use a custom external toolchain for which no profile is available.
