[PATCH] tools: fix unavoidable GCC call in Clang builds

From: Adrian Ratiu
Date: Wed Feb 16 2022 - 22:37:06 EST


In ChromeOS and Gentoo we catch any unwanted mixed Clang/LLVM
and GCC/binutils usage via toolchain wrappers which fail builds.
This has revealed that GCC is called unconditionally in Clang
configured builds to populate GCC_TOOLCHAIN_DIR.

Allow overriding the variable to avoid the GCC call - in our
case we can set GCC_TOOLCHAIN_DIR directly in the ebuild recipe.
