[Buildroot] [git commit] nios2: Add new architecture

commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=830205c0361c751c39fabeb1366100e2a94a27a4
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

This commit adds very basic support to build for the Nios II
architecture. Toolchain support is still missing and instead
we need to use an external custom toolchain.

Notice that this architecture had been previously removed in
Buildroot 2010.05-rc1 release (as explained in the CHANGES file)
and this commit adds it back.
