[Buildroot] [PATCH 8/9] ext-toolchain-wrapper: force hash-style to 'both'

From: Patrick Ziegler <patrick.ziegler at fh-kl.de>

If ext-toolchain-wrapper was build with gcc that uses hash-style 'gnu' by
default, the resulting binary might be unusable on other systems. The error
in this case is "Floating point exception".
Using hash-style 'both' solves this issue.
