PATCH v3 1/1 toolchain-external: Introduce kernel headers sanitization

The Nios-II Sourcery external toolchain (the only Nios-II we currently support) exports broken kernel headers. In particular, these kernels should be exported using the "headers_install" rule which applies a set of fixes on the kernel headers so they are suitable for userspace usage.

In order to fix this, add a post-install hook to perform the header fixes ourselves. The result is equivalent to apply the "headers_install" rule.

Fixes:
http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/c32/c32ad4bac5f651502e551f7733f702afaa0e742a/

---
v2 -> v3: Re-worked as per Thomas' suggestion.

v1 -> v2: Yann asked to replace ${STAGING_DIR} with $(STAGING_DIR)

Why do we still have Config.in changes here?
