ZSTD and libdeflate do not depend on SED nor flock, so instead of the whole
for loop that will filter 2 out of 4 core packages just specify that patch
and tar depend on sed explicitly.
ZSTD now depends on libdeflate since libdeflate-gzip will then be used to
unpack ZSTD as well as most tool archives.

mold is a faster drop-in replacement for existing Unix linkers.
A single binary is able to link various targets, which is why this lives
in tools/.
All toolchain builds then just need to copy the linker over, hence avoiding
multiple builds with the same outcome.

Using the local gnulib source during bootstrap
allows for fine-grained control over the macros
and source files for use with coreutils
but part of gnulib instead of coreutils,
without having to wait for a release
or deal with gnulib as a git submodule.
In this case, the execution of autotools
must be skipped by force.
Autoconf and Automake during bootstrap on coreutils
only works right when using directly checked-out source.
There is a symbol in gnulib, @GNULIB_TIME@
that is not yet defined in coreutils source,
so we use the backup of lib/time.in.h instead
of the one provided by gnulib source.

By having a local copy of gnulib, we can:
import the latest macro fixes into any package,
get rid of some statically stored macros that were otherwise missing,
bootstrap GNU tools with the latest relevant source
without having to wait for a release or rely on git submodules,
and possibly more...
The patch assists in bootstrapping by ignoring
the building of po files using gettext,
and also to allow a user-defined path to a program
to include parameters.

Several devices provide U-Boot versions with only gzip compressed kernel
support (e.g. Realtek switches). This compression method produces larger
images than lzma. To save space on flash and avoid going the hard way with
lzma-loader we can make use of enhanced gzip tool based on libdeflate
compression library from https://github.com/ebiggers/libdeflate. It
keeps 100% deflate/gzip compatibility while improving compression ratio.
The image can be unpacked by the default inflate routines inside U-Boot.

There's no purpose to squish multiple tools into a single line (and
spread those out over multiple lines). It might look 'nice' in certain
conditions, but it's annoying to maintain.
For example, but not limited to:
* adding/removing tools, causes hard to read diffs
* Duplicates are harder to spot
* Sorting can not be (easily?) automated
With this proposed change, the above annoyances go away. Inserting a new
tool can be done with a single line-change-diff, sorting can be done by
any editor (in vi, select, :sort for example) and dupes are much easier
to spot.

Add the 7zr command line tool, which is a version of the 7z application
that only supports 7z archives.
7z is one of the two compression formats supported in H3C firmware
images (the alternative would be ARJ).
(Alternatively, the 7zr command line tool could also be built from a
current version of the public-domain LZMA SDK. That would require
repackaging the source package, as it is only provided in 7z format.)

dwarves is a set of tools that use the debugging information inserted in
ELF binaries by compilers such as GCC. Utilities in the dwarves suite
include pahole, which can be used to find alignment holes in structs and
classes, and also extracts other information such as CPU cacheline
alignment, helping pack those structures to achieve more cache hits.
These tools are also used to encode and read the BTF type information
format used with the bpf syscall, making this a Linux build dependency
when using kernel BTF information.
