Make a major refactoring to how the GCC installation detection works.
The fundamental shift here is to stop making *any* assumptions about the
*host* triple. Where these assumptions you ask? Why, they were in one of
the two target triples referenced of course. This was the single biggest
place where the previously named "host triple" was actually used as
such. ;] The reason we were reasoning about the host is in order to
detect the use of '-m32' or '-m64' flags to change the target. These
flags shift the default target only slightly, which typically means
a slight deviation from the host. When using these flags, the GCC
installation is under a different triple from the one actually targeted
in the compilation, and we used the host triple to find it.
Too bad that wasn't even correct. Consider an x86 Linux host which has
a PPC64 cross-compiling GCC toolchain installed. This toolchain is also
configured for multiarch compiling and can target PPC32 with eth '-m32'
flag. When targeting 'powerpc-linux-gnu' or some other PPC32 triple, we
have to look for the PPC64 variant of the triple to find the GCC
install, and that triple is neither the host nor target.
The new logic computes the multiarch's alternate triple from the target
triple, and looks under both sides. It also looks more aggressively for
the correct subdirectory of the GCC installation, and exposes the
subdirectory in a nice programmatic way. This '/32' or '/64' suffix is
something we can reuse in many other parts of the toolchain.
An important note -- while this likely fixes a large category of
cross-compile use cases, that's not my primary goal, and I've not done
testing (or added test cases) for scenarios that may now work. If
someone else wants to try more interesting PPC cross compiles, I'd love
to have reports. But my focus is on factoring away the references to the
"host" triple. The refactoring is my goal, and so I'm mostly relying on
the existing (pretty good) test coverage we have here.
Future patches will leverage this new functionality to factor out more
and more of the toolchain's triple manipulation.
