Here's a new port to get a modern GNU toolchain for x86_64.  It
successfully compiles a lightly tweaked openbsd-wip/net/ipxe and a
revived sysutils/memtest86+.  The port is based off
devel/arm-none-eabi, with all the cruft removed.  Someone could add an
i386 FLAVOR it they care.  I used the same gcc and binutils version as
arm-none-eabi for no other reason than mere laziness.

The idea is that a dedicated GNU toolchain specialized for standalone
code should be more robust in the long run than fixing build/runtime
errors in niche software every time we update clang, lld, ports-gcc,
etc.  That would be ipxe and sysutils/firmware/vmm.

Tarball attached.  Thoughts?  ok?

kn, fwiw below is the diff I used to build openbsd-wip/net/ipxe.
I haven't sorted out everything in sysutils/vmm yet.
