a150b26ee8 Improve the process for GNU tools
Split the process to fetch GNU tools (until now embedded
within tools/Makefile.gnuhost) into a new Makefile.fetchgnu,
MINIX-specific hence relocated, which is to be also used
to fetch sources even when not building the tools.
Use it for binutils too.
Improve documentation.

Also do not run configure on each run when MKUPDATE=yes
The .WAIT serialization instruction between fetching and other
configure sources was raising a new run of configure at each
compilation. Avoid it by using two rules.

c566d4623b Allow install of binutils and import texinfo
- Enable installing binutils from the base system.

 - Import texinfo which is required for the binutils tools
   to be compiled.

 - Also adapted the fetch rules to correctly generate the
   gitignore files for gcc, and allow the case of multiple
   modules in the same directory, as found in gnu/dist.

Warning: This patch has an entry in docs/UPDATING
