[Buildroot] [PATCH] Strip binaries in the fakeroot script instead of in target-finalize

From: Carlos Santos <unixmania at gmail.com>

Since commit 118534fe54 the root filesystem image is generated from an
intermediary copy of TARGET_DIR, so we can move the stripping of target
binaries from target-finalize to the fakeroot script.

This allows us to easily find the non-stripped executables to debug with
gdbserver, as they are at the same relative path in TARGET_DIR as in the
target device, rather than searching inside the build directory.

We can also set sysroot to TARGET_DIR in gdb, instead of STAGING_DIR.

Fixes: https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=10386
