- Use the full file name for object files in the GN build, e.g.
file.cc.o instead of file.o. This allows having .cc and .c files with
the same name.
- Have the pw_auto_add_simple_module CMake function build .c and .cc
test files together.

The way in which the exec script receives arguments was recently
modified but the MacOS clang toolchain that calls it was not updated.
This change fixes that.
Fixes: 11

There is some confusion as to what the following flags do:
--start-group/--end-group
--[no-]whole-archive
Before explaining them further, the following facts should be
highlighted:
Fact: the linker loads *all* input *.o objects
Fact: a static library is an archive of object files
Fact: the linker will try to resolve symbols across *all* currently
loaded object
Fact: if a symbol cannot be resolved among currently loaded object, the
linker will consider static libraries in the order provided and
load the first object that provides that symbol
Fact: the linker only considers static libraries once and in the order
provided
--start-group/--end-group pairs tell the linker to re-attempt
considering the libraries contained within the pair, and *in the order
provded* for as long as new unresolved symbols can be resolved that way.
--whole-archive/--no-whole-archive pairs tell the linker to load all
objects from the libraries contained within the pair, making it
equivalent to manually extracting all the object files out of these
libraries and providing them on the command line to the linker
In well-formed cases, none of these flags are necessary. An acyclic
chain of depencies can be established within these libraries by making
them into source_set() targets that depend on each other. In this case,
gn will output the correct order for these libraries.
There are cases where this is not possible. This is typically the case
when vendor-provided libraries have circular dependencies among them.
In these cases, either --start-group/--end-group or
--whole-archive/--no-whole-archive pairs need to be used.
--whole-archive/--no-whole-archive is safer because it allows the proper
resolution of weak/strong symbols.
Example:
libfoo.a:
foo.o:
w foo
libbar.a:
bar.o:
T foo
main.o:
U foo
$ gcc main.o libfoo.a libbar.a
will result in the weak symbol defined in libfoo.a to be used.
$ gcc main.o --Wl,--whole-archive libfoo.a libbar.a -wl,--no-whole-archive
will result in the strong symbol defined in libbar.a to be used.
In light of all of the above, we propose always using
--whole-archive/--no-whole-archive and relying on --gc-sections to trim
the resulting executable to a reasonable size.

This switches the ARM GCC toolchain to use the GN's new string_join()
function to make the long literals in the GCC toolchain files easier to
read.

* Add Cortex-M4 toolchains with floating point hardware instructions.
* Update stm32f429i-disc1 to use hardware fpu toolchain by default.
* Add code to enable FPU in pw_dumb_io.
Verified tests that use floating point operations continue to pass.

- Update host_clang to work on Linux: switch to -Map and --gc-sections
options
- Make pw_target_toolchain a build arg for Linux and macOS targets.
Default to gcc on Linux, clang on macOS.
- Rename x86_linux_gcc to host_gcc.

This adds a generic host_clang toolchain, targeting hosts running Mac and
Linux to start, and likely Windows later.
For now, on Mac the default toolchain is set to host_clang_og

- Add -fdiagnostics-color so that compiler warnings are colorized. The
way Ninja invokes GCC disables colors by default.
- Move -Wno-psabi up to the arm_gcc_toolchain template so that it
doesn't have to be specified for each arm_gcc_toolchain instance.
- Add -Werror to the strict_warnings config to prevent warnings from
slipping through. Exempt a few warnings that should actually be
warnings.

This change adds two Pigweed modules: pw_preprocessor and pw_unit_test.
The preprocessor module contains header files providing helpful macros
for the C preprocessor. The unit test module contains a starter
implementation of a unit testing framework for Pigweed.

This change adds Pigweed's first few (incomplete) modules: pw_build,
pw_status, and pw_toolchain. The main scaffolding for Pigweed's GN-based
build system is also included, with a root BUILDCONFIG and BUILD.gn file
defining a top-level modules build target.
