PATCH 1/2 uclibc: use uClibc-ng by default

Since the uClibc project is not making any release since about 3 years, and the uClibc-ng project is now alive and delivering regular releases based on uClibc master plus a number of fixes, let's make uClibc-ng the default uClibc version used by Buildroot.

PATCH 2/2 uclibc: remove Xtensa specific version

In reply to Thomas Petazzoni

Since we now have uClibc-ng, and it is used as the default uClibc version, there is no real need to keep the Xtensa version: this version is just a specific Git revision of uClibc master branch, and uClibc-ng is also based on uClibc master branch.

In addition, since in the choice of uClibc versions, uClibc-ng is already *before* the Xtensa specific version, uClibc-ng has in fact already been the default uClibc version for Xtensa since uClibc-ng support was introduced.

See for example:

http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/c85/c854fae31d82e0f11d5a8b5bfc196c29bd7e21db/config

for a build on Xtensa with the internal toolchain, where in fact uClibc-ng is used instead of the Xtensa specific version.

Yes, been using it for a while, got no issues so far.

As suggested by Max, I've also removed the no-longer needed Xtensa specific patch directory, and applied.

Thanks,
