Subject: Unify the various copies of libgcc into lib v2

Thanks to everyone who responded to my original patch set.  I believe I've
responded to everyone's comments.  There have been a handful of changes since
the original patch set:

 * The Kconfig names for the routines are now GENERIC_* instead of LIB_*.  This
   matches the existing generic implementation Kconfig names.
 * Tracing is disabled, which matches the MIPS behavior and seems correct
   globally.
 * I've cross compiled this to make sure it builds, and fixed all the build
   errors I found.
 * The MIPS patches actually do what they say in the commit message.

I don't know of any remaining problems with this patch set, so hopefully it's
ready to get merged.  I'll be including patch 1 in our RISC-V submissions, but
as I'm somewhat new to this I don't have a tree that anyone pulls from yet.

If everyone is happy with this patch set then I'd be willing to use this as a
first attempt to get patches upstream myself.
