[yocto] build a toolchain compiler with ARM hard-float support

[Karim ATIKI]

Thanks for your feeback.

I've attempted to generate the sdk (populate_sdk) having only MACHINE=colibri-t20 in the local.conf.


Fortunately, the generated installer has all the necessary features with hard-float support.

The machine configuration file should be setting the 'DEFAULTTUNE' variable to
an appropriate ISA and ABI (hard float) for your configuration.  If it is not,
you may have to create your own variant and change the DEFAULTTUNE setting --
assuming the board supports the necessary hard float components.  (And yes,
there are some armv7a variants that people removed the VFP instructions from --
even though it's theoretically against spec.)
