[Buildroot] [PATCH v5 09/13] support/test-pkg: add option to use an alternate toolchain directory

For now, testing a package requires network access. However, there are
situations where everything is already cached locally (especially the
toolchains tarballs) and network is not available (e.g. in the train,
travelling back from FOSDEM...)

Alternatively, one may also want to test against a subset of the default
toolchains (e.g. the ones known to have a specific issue), or against
additional toolchains (e.g. the ones used within the company).

Add an option to use an alternate directory containing the defconfigs
of toolchains to try.

Loosely based on http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/728395/ but with a
directory instead of URL, and completely rewritten help text.
