[coreboot] [PATCH]add arm toolchain support

[Hamo]

Hi Marc,
I am working on porting coreboot to qemu-arm (versatilepb) mainboard,
and after I finish it, we can commit it together with this patch. But
now, the most important thing is changing the CBFS structure.

makefile uses CC(AS, LD and others) as the default compiler, but now,
xcompile generated CC_ARCH. So we need to bind the right CC_ARCH
variable(and others of cause) to CC.
