newlib: drop i?86-pc-linux-* target support
This was added 20+ years ago. It seems to have very few (or no users)
as it only works on 32-bit x86 GNU/Linux (i.e. glibc) systems, and even
then only with old versions of glibc. It hasn't compiled in at least 5
years, but most likely been broken for more like 15 years -- it relies
on internal glibc APIs (like linuxthreads), and that code has changed
and been deleted significantly since.
This single target ends up dragging in a lot of non-trivial code that is
hard to keep working, and currently impossible to verify -- the libtool
and iconvdata and sys/linux/ code isn't used by anything else, but ends
up touching just about every build file in the tree. Punt the target so
we can start stripping out all these unique code paths.
This commit by itself just disables the target. We'll start deleting the
individual unused pieces in followups.
