The command python has been removed from upstream python and python2
and python3 is now used. This patch wraps the commands in a shell
script that locates a suitable python to run.
Updates #3537
Set up the rules to manage the separate host and build setting to
allow a Canadian cross to complete.
Update the scripts to move the build directory and host/build
flags into the defaults so they are common for all build
configurations.
Refactor the options handling in defaults.py to allow the --jobs
option have varing specific parameters. The option supports 'none',
'max' and 'half' or a fraction to divide the number of CPUs or
an integer value which is the number of jobs. The --no-smp has
been removed.
The host specific modules have been changed to set the number of
CPUs in the defaults table.
Fixed the --keep-going to clean up is --always-clean is provided
even if the build has an error.
Add support to build MinGW tools using Cygwin. This is a Canadian cross
build.
Do not expand the directives when parsing a configuration file. Hold
in the package object the text as read from the configuration file. Still
parse the logic but leave the macros. This allows a configuration to be
varied when the build happens. The Canadian cross uses this to build a
build compiler used to build a Cxc runtime.
Add Cxc support to the build module. In the defaults add rm and rmfile
macros, add Cxc paths and pre-build script code.
In the setbuilder check for a Cxc build and if so and the package
allow Cxc build the build host version then the host target
version.
Add cygiwn support to the defaults processing and to the Windows module.
The git module allows basic access to git. Hosts are now required
to provide git support.
The defaults module now returns options as a list split on '='.
