[Buildroot] [PATCH 6/6] toolchain-external: add Linaro ARM big endian toolchain

Linaro has started to release ARM big endian toolchains, so we
integrate this toolchain in the external toolchain logic of
Buildroot. Since ARM big endian is probably going to be a lot more
confidential than ARM little endian, we will only support one version
at a time of this toolchain.

+	  Linaro toolchain for the ARM big endian architecture. It
+	  uses Linaro GCC 2014.01 (based on gcc 4.8), Linaro GDB
+	  2013.10 (based on GDB 7.6), eglibc 2.18, Binutils 2013.11
+	  (based on 2.24). It generates code that runs on all Cortex-A
+	  profile devices, but tuned for the Cortex-A9. The code
+	  generated is Thumb 2, with the hard floating point calling
+	  convention, and uses the VFPv3-D16 FPU instructions.
