[Buildroot] [git commit] toolchain-external: create symlink ARCH_LIB_DIR->lib

[Thomas Petazzoni]

commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=cef3cd40b7a168f2e1f532f4b621a259f5ace095
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

Currently, following symbolic links are created in both target and
staging directories:
- lib(32|64) --> lib
- usr/lib(32|64) --> lib

The decision for lib32 or lib64 is based on the target architecture
configuration in buildroot (BR2_ARCH_IS_64).

In at least one case this is not correct: when building for a Cavium Octeon
III processor using the toolchain from the Cavium Networks SDK, and
specifying -march=octeon3 in BR2_TARGET_OPTIMIZATION, libraries are expected
in directory 'lib32-fp' rather than 'lib32' (ABI=n32; likewise for
lib64-fp in case of ABI=n64)

More generally the correct symbolic link is from (usr/)${ARCH_LIB_DIR}->lib.
However, feedback from Arnout Vandecappelle is that there are packages that
do depend on the lib32/lib64 symlink, even if ARCH_LIB_DIR is different.
Hence, these links must be kept.

Fix the problem as follows:
- For internal toolchains: no change
- For external toolchains: create a symlink ARCH_LIB_DIR->lib if
  (usr/)ARCH_LIB_DIR does not exist yet.
